After completing the choice value sorter and the focus self assessment online I
learned that I am a very helpful person. I put others before me and I believe that when
you help others you’re really helping yourself. I was really surprised by the some of the
careers suggested to me but at the same time very interested in them as well. Yes I did
I research them and found out how much they make and where are the better locations
to get a job as such to do so. One of the careers I was in particularly interested in was
respiratory therapy. I find this field to be very intriguing plus very similar to physical
therapy.
The occupation that I researched and found very interesting was Respiratory
Therapist. They setup and operate various types of equipment, such as ventilators,
oxygen tents, resuscitators, and incubators, to administer oxygen and other medicinal
gases or aerosol drugs to patients. I also found out a lot about this field. I found out the
type of things they provide. The website under connections that I checked out was
American Association of Respiratory Care web address was www.aarc.org. On this
website I found out the education required for this field. I also found both their
community and international resources. I learned how to become a Respiratory
Therapist and what degrees I would need to become one.

After doing this research assignment my educational plan would be to major in
physical therapy and minor in Respiratory Therapist. Therefore I would be able to do
both careers I love while not wasting anytime. I also learned what each therapist
required starting from their school work and degrees. All the way to how much they earn
and etc. yes this research did influence my decision because at first I wasn’t planning to
go to school for Respiratory Therapist. But now I am very interested in doing so. I found
this project very helpful because this informed me a lot on what I need to get done to
become successful in today society. I didn’t really find any surprises.
