Julie Futscher is our Registered Respiratory Therapist at Woodcrest Nursing and Rehab. She graduated from NKU in 2000 with a Bachelor’s of Science, and then received an Associate’s in Respiratory Therapy in 2005 from Cincinnati State. Julie worked at the University of Cincinnati Hospital from 2004-2013 focusing on the surgical ICU and trauma patients. From 2013-2016 Julie worked at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center, expanding her respiratory knowledge to pediatrics, infants and neonates. During her stint at Children’s, Julie also became an in house clinical instructor for Kettering Medical Center. Along with working here, at Woodcrest, Julie also works at St. Elizabeth Medical Center and believes the continuity of care is very beneficial for the patients entering our facility for pulmonary rehab as well as long term care.
