    • Use evidence-based practices and interventions tailored to the geriatric population.

  • Collaboration and Communication:

    • Collaborate with a multidisciplinary team, including physical therapists, occupational therapists, nurses, and physicians, to ensure coordinated and comprehensive care.
    • Educate patients, family members, and staff on strategies to improve communication, safety, and quality of life.

  • Documentation and Compliance:

    • Accurately document assessments, treatments, progress, and discharge summaries in compliance with SNF and regulatory guidelines.
    • Maintain up-to-date records in electronic medical records (EMR) systems.

  • Patient and Family Education:

    • Provide training and support to family members and caregivers on communication techniques and safe swallowing strategies.
    • Educate patients on exercises and techniques to continue improving outside of therapy sessions.

  • Quality Improvement and Advocacy:

    • Participate in facility initiatives to improve patient outcomes and enhance the quality of services provided.
    • Advocate for patients' needs within the SNF and ensure ethical and compassionate care.

Qualifications:

  • Master's degree in Speech-Language Pathology from an accredited institution.
  • Current state licensure as a Speech-Language Pathologist (SLP).
  • Certificate of Clinical Competence (CCC-SLP) from the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) preferred.
