What AzSRC does for Arizona RTs

We’re the professional home for Arizona respiratory therapists—and the official AARC state affiliate dedicated to advancing the practice, education, and impact of respiratory care across Arizona.  We offer:

• Education that fits real practice
  Conferences, workshops, and learning opportunities designed for Arizona RTs—practical, relevant, and focused on what you’ll use on your next shift.
• A stronger professional voice
  We advocate for respiratory care and RTs—supporting recognition, standards, and policies that protect patients and strengthen the profession.
• Connection and community
  Networking with RTs across hospitals, clinics, transport, sleep, PFT labs, education, and industry—because none of us should do this work alone.
• Support for students and new grads
  Mentorship, career growth, and pathways to help the next generation of RTs succeed in Arizona.
• Partnership with AARC
  As the AARC state affiliate, we help connect national best practices and resources with Arizona’s unique needs and opportunities.
