National Respiratory Patient Advocate Award

2023 nominations close soon!

Nominate Today!

The National Respiratory Patient Advocacy Award is a collaboration of the American Association of Respiratory Care (AARC) and The FACES Foundation®. The award commemorates a vital member of the healthcare team: the respiratory therapist. This consummate professional appreciates the "individual" instead of the "patient" and is dedicated to the principal that every breath matters. Nominations come from facilities across the continuum of care where registered respiratory therapists are actively engaged as a champion of patient family centered care.
