• Communicate patient's needs and progress to the treatment team, physician, person receiving services, and family members.
• Communicate with other disciplines to ensure collaboration, coordination of care, and enhance patient outcomes.

Qualifications

• Minimum of a master’s degree from an accredited Speech Language Pathology program.
