CDU Respiratory Therapy

🌬️Breath is a Right, Not a Privilege📖

The mission for World Asthma Day 2026 is all about leveling up: “Access to anti-inflammatory inhalers for everyone with asthma – still an urgent need.” We are pushing for a world where life-saving inhaled corticosteroids aren’t just a breakthrough in a lab, but a reality in every patient’s hand! 🚀

It’s time to shift the energy from just “rescuing” to true long-term prevention. No more barriers, just deep breaths and big goals. Because whether you’re across the globe or right next door, everyone deserves the chance to breathe easy and live life at full volume! 🫁💙

𝑻𝒐𝒅𝒂𝒚, 𝒘𝒆 𝒓𝒆𝒎𝒆𝒎𝒃𝒆𝒓 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒂𝒄𝒕…

It’s World Tuberculosis Day! 🌍 May this day reminds us that every breath 🌬️, every life 🫶, and every story 📖 matters.

Preventing and curing Tuberculosis is possible when we lead with empathy and awareness. By focusing on early diagnosis and consistent treatment, we're actively saving lives and strengthening our community. It’s time to move from awareness to impact.

A massive congratulations to our Inspirators for pouring their souls into this year’s University Week. Representing the College of Rehabilitative Sciences is no small feat, and you did it with grace, grit, and unmatched spirit. Thank you for making our department shine brighter than ever. We are so proud of you! 🩵🏆

Six takers, one goal — 100% success! 🎉💙

Hats off to our 6 Cebu Doctors University graduates who are now officially Registered Respiratory Therapists (RTRPs) after acing the February 9–10 Licensure Examination with a 100% passing rate!

Your hard work and dedication truly paid off. Your Respiratory Therapy family is so proud of you! 🫁✨

✨ Good luck, future Respiratory Therapists! ✨

This February 9 & 10, trust your preparation, stay calm, and breathe with confidence.
You’ve studied hard—now it’s time to shine.

“The trials of today will not last forever, God is turning your pain into purpose and your struggles into testimonies.”
— Romans 8:18

We’re rooting for you all the way to RTRP! 🫁💙

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and lung cancer remain among the leading causes of illness and death worldwide, affecting millions and often going undiagnosed until advanced stages. Both diseases remind us of the importance of early detection, smoking cessation, and respiratory health education in saving lives.

Let’s take every breath as a reminder to care, prevent, and inspire others to do the same. Together, we can raise awareness and continue to advocate for prevention. 👥
