About Respira Health
Respira Health is a nonprofit tackling chronic respiratory disease in India by providing free-of-cost, accessible pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) via WhatsApp. PR is a proven treatment that can reduce mortality risk and improve quality of life, yet fewer than 3% of patients in India have access. Our programme combines an 8-week WhatsApp chatbot-delivered exercise and education intervention with physiotherapist oversight.

We're aiming to enrol 1,000+ participants by March 2027, with a longer-term ambition of reaching 100,000+ annually through government-embedded delivery. Our current priority is building evidence that our programme delivers real health improvements, at a cost per participant that supports future scale.

Role Overview




Respira Health currently enrols participants into our 8-week PR programme largely by advertising on Facebook. We're looking for a physiotherapist to support the participant journey end to end. This involves:
Conducting baseline and endline video assessments with participants to measure their progress over the course of the programme
Screening programme applicants who require a clinical judgement on their suitability
Engaging with participants throughout the programme (eg. for support, motivation, user research)
Providing clinical input to shape and improve the design and delivery of the programme

This is an chance to shape both the participant experience and the evidence base for a first-of-its-kind digital PR programme in India, working closely with our existing physiotherapy team.

Key Responsibilities

Conduct video call assessments with participants at baseline and endline, focused on our most clinicall
