Inspired: Takesha Pratt & Lisa Caldwell

I want to take this time and express that you are an extraordinary individual whose dedication and determination to create and implement new opportunities for respiratory therapists (RT) has changed the view of how they can be utilized throughout the medical field. You had a vision to open more doors to allow RTs to hold positions outside of bedside care; this changed the lives of many RTs such as myself, and I will forever be grateful for your commitment to your employees.

I have had the privilege of witnessing your exceptional skills and compassion firsthand. Lisa, your ability to break through barriers to implement new programs and create new opportunities and positions for your employees is truly awe-inspiring.

In conclusion, Lisa, your dedication, empathy, and commitment to improving healthcare have left an indelible mark on my life and have ignited a passion within me to excel and continue educating and serving those in the communities with respiratory diseases.
