Your job is more than a job.

When it comes to speech and language barriers, you’re a bridge fostering communication and enabling individuals to express their emotions, thoughts, and needs. As a Speech Therapist, you’re a valued member of our rehabilitation team planning, organizing and coordinating therapy and care for all types of communication and swallowing disorders and difficulties. You plan, organize and coordinate speech therapy goals in consultation with other disciplines/professionals to help your patients regain as much independence as possible.

It’s not about achieving perfection, but rather connection. We like the way you think.

Your experiences, knowledge, skills, empathy, compassion, and your “little something extra” all add up to you. And we’re excited to get to know you and find out what you’ll bring to this specialized speech therapy role.

Your Everyday

• Deliver clinically appropriate evaluation and therapy services to patients who present with disorders of communication and swallowing.
• Evaluate and provide treatment for developmental disorders, clinical dysphagia, modified barium swallow study, speaking valve and oral motor disorders.

• Document hearing status of patient.
• Obtain prescriptions for current speech therapy patients, prior to expiration.
• Request for Medicaid authorization/insurance renewal is submitted in a timely fashion.
• Comply with all established policies and procedures on a departmental, rehabilitation and hospital wide level.

• Supervise the activities of students, clinical fellows, and volunteers, as directed by the leadership and within the licensure regulations.
