A Speech-Language Pathologist (SLP) assesses, diagnoses, treats, and helps prevent communication and swallowing disorders in individuals of all ages.

  • Develop individualized diagnostic reports outlining the assessment results and recommendations for treatment.

Treatment and Intervention :

Design and implement individualized treatment plans tailored to the specific needs of each client.

  • Provide therapy for a range of speech and language disorders, including but not limited to speech delays, aphasia, dysphagia (swallowing difficulties), stuttering, voice disorders, and communication disorders resulting from neurological or developmental conditions.
  • Work with clients on improving articulation, phonology, fluency, receptive and expressive language, social communication, and voice.
  • Educate and train clients and their families on exercises, strategies, and tools to use at home or in daily routines to support progress.

  • Participate in team meetings, Individualized Education Program (IEP) meetings (for school-based SLPs), and other multidisciplinary meetings to provide insights into speech and language needs.
  • Provide guidance and support to family members, caregivers, or school staff on ways to reinforce therapy goals in everyday interactions and environments.

    • Progress Monitoring and Documentation :

    Regularly monitor and track client progress toward therapy goals and make adjustments to treatment plans as needed.

  • Document all therapy sessions, client progress, and treatment modifications in compliance with ethical and legal standards (e.g., HIPAA, FERPA).
  • Prepare detailed reports for families, educational teams, or healthcare providers, ensuring clarity and accuracy in communication.

    • Education and Prevention :

    Educate clients, caregivers, and the community on speech and language development, as well as prevention of communication disorders.

  • Provide training and workshops for staff or parents on how to support speech and language development in children or adults.
  • Develop and implement prevention strategies for individuals at risk of developing speech and language issues.

    • Research and Continuing Education :

    Stay current on the latest research, techniques, and best practices in speech-language pathology.

  • Engage in continuing education and professional development activities to maintain licensure and enhance clinical skills.
  • Evaluate new tools and therapies that may benefit clients.

    • Qualifications : Education :

    Master’s degree in Speech-Language Pathology from an accredited program.

    • Experience :

    Previous experience in speech-language therapy, preferably in the setting where the position is based (e.g., schools, hospitals, outpatient clinics, etc.).

  • Experience working with specific populations such as children with speech delays, adults with neurological disorders, or individuals with swallowing difficulties is preferred.

    • Skills :

    Strong knowledge of speech and language development, anatomy, and physiology of speech production and swallowing.

  • Proficient in using speech-language assessment tools and therapy techniques.
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills to work effectively with clients, families, and other professionals.
  • Ability to manage and document treatment plans, goals, and client progress in an organized and clear manner.
