  • Educate patients and their families on navigating communication challenges to ensure continued progress outside therapy sessions.
  • Participate in occasional inpatient evaluations and interventions, ensuring a seamless continuum of care throughout the treatment process.
  • Document clinical findings, treatment strategies, and patient progress in alignment with state regulations and institutional policies.
  • Commit to ongoing professional development through continuing education and networking with peers.

  • Certificate of Clinical Competence (CCC-SLP) from ASHA is highly preferred.
  • Basic Life Support (BLS) certification is required within the first month of employment.
Skills
  • Expertise in evidence-based treatment methods applicable to various age groups, alongside a deep understanding of the intricacies of speech, language, and swallowing disorders.
  • Superior interpersonal skills to engage successfully with patients, families, and interdisciplinary teams.
  • Ability to adapt therapies to meet varying cultural and linguistic backgrounds.
  • Strong analytical abilities for clinical judgement and problem-solving.
  • Familiarity with electronic medical records and documentation requirements.
Perks and Benefits
  • Attractive salary reflective of experience.
  • Flexible schedules designed for optimal work-life balance and diversified caseloads.
  • Opportunities to specialize further in pediatrics, adult neuro rehabilitation, or geriatrics.
  • Paid time off (PTO) as well as holiday remuneration.
  • Medical, dental, vision, and life insurance options available.
  • Financial support for continuing education and professional development opportunities.
  • Cohesive, team-oriented environment dedicated to quality care and continuous learning.


A Journey Filled with Purpose

When you step into this role, you're not just practicing therapy; you're joining a mission to rekindle voices, enhance communication, and create beautiful moments through authentic engagement. The bonds you build with colleagues are akin to those of family, functioning in a space that prioritizes collaboration over competition. Each patient has a narrative; we trust you to help shape that story.

Who We Want

We are searching for a Speech Pathologist who is motivated not just by positive outcomes but by compassion. You might be someone who visualizes a quiet child blossoming into a confident communicator or hears a stroke survivor's words and perceives their determination to conquer challenges.

If you're ready to combine your skills and heart with a community that inspires, we are eager to meet you.
