FAQs – Travel Registered Respiratory Therapist Jobs Near Davenport, IA

What certifications are required for travel RRT jobs?

Travel RRT jobs generally require an active NBRC Registered Respiratory Therapist credential, BLS, and the respiratory care license required by the assignment state.

Adult critical-care units may also require ACLS, while pediatric or neonatal assignments may require PALS or NRP. Submit an “I’m Interested” form, and a recruiter can confirm the complete requirements for this unit.

Can I use the Respiratory Care Interstate Compact for a travel assignment?

Not yet. As of August 2026, the compact has reached its activation threshold and entered implementation, but applications are not open, and no state is issuing practice privileges.

For now, travel RRTs must follow the assignment state’s existing licensing process. A recruiter can help you begin any required application early.

Explore Davenport, IA

Few mid-size markets straddle a state line the way Davenport, IA does, holding down the Iowa side of the Quad Cities. The Mississippi River splits the metro, pairing Davenport and Bettendorf in Iowa with Moline and Rock Island across the water in Illinois. CT and physical-therapy clinics run on both banks within a quick drive. I-74, I-80, and I-280 ring the metro, so a single home base can reach work in either state. Bridges back up at rush hour, the one real wrinkle in an otherwise quick commute. The riverfront paths downtown make for a pleasant walk after work, with the summer river festivals the Quad Cities are known for close at hand.
