Respiratory Care Week Idea Guide

Respiratory Care

Arrange for personalized potatoes this National Respiratory Care Week. Set up a baked potato bar in your break room or cafeteria with a variety of toppings, such as low-fat sour cream and cheddar cheese, chives, broccoli, and chili. You might even try shredded BBQ chicken and beef. Serve drinks in “Respiratory Care: With You Every Breath Of The Way” Stainless Steel Water Bottles

Add a challenge to your next drawing. Start with tickets from the Respiratory Care Raffle Pack. Hide some of them in your facility, using the “Keep This Coupon” part of each pair. Put the “Ticket” parts in a container. Invite staff members to look for the hidden tickets. Repeat this every day for a week. Then draw tickets out of your container. Award raffle pack prizes to the people with the matching numbers.

Order “10 Reasons I ♥ Being A Respiratory Therapist” T-Shirts for all of your staff. Then plan a Respiratory Care Week luncheon. Hand out invitations and distribute the t-shirts at the same time. Let everyone know the “ticket” to get into the event is wearing the shirt that day. Place stars on the underneath side of a few of the luncheon chairs. Surprise whoever sits in the specially marked chairs with Full-Zip Fleece Jackets.

Give members of your respiratory staff the focused attention they deserve. Celebrate a staff member each day or hour by declaring “[name a person] Day/Hour.” Announce the staff member’s name on the P.A. system and provide some information or anecdote about the person’s background and personality. Present the staff member with a “Property Of Respiratory Department” Messenger Briefcase Bag.

Reward hard work all throughout the year. Stock up on gifts from this catalog as well as an On The Spot Recognition Starter Kit. Whenever you see a staff member going above and beyond for a patient or to make your facility a better place, present a button and a token from the kit. Let employees exchange two tokens for the kit’s pens or wristbands. Also give them the option of saving up their tokens for larger gifts.
