Job description

Speech-Language Pathologist (SLP) at TKC Therapy About Us :

TKC Therapy provides high-quality and intensive PT, OT, and ST services to children attending The Kidz Club (TKC), a Prescribed Pediatric Extended Care (PPEC) center.
PPEC centers provide daily skilled nursing care to medically-complex children, ages birth to under 21.
You can learn more about us by visiting our TKC Therapy website .

Our Expectations :

As an SLP at this facility, we highly prefer someone with pediatric feeding and / or high- and low-tech AAC experience, as this makes up a large majority of the caseload.

The caseload also heavily consists of early intervention, play-based therapy.

The children who attend The Kidz Club range from NICU-discharged infants to young adults in wheelchairs.

You must be comfortable treating this wide range of population to be successful here.

This facility has a heavy focus on interdisciplinary collaboration.

You must be able to work well with other therapists and staff (PT, OT, ABA, nurses, caregivers, etc.) throughout the day, and be comfortable with basic medical terminology and processes.

This setting consists of medically-complex children, some with accompanying behavior issues as well.

You must be confident in your knowledge of therapeutic intervention for unique cases, as well as confident in your ability to manage disruptive behaviors.

We operate on a fee-for-service basis, meaning you are paid for the hours you bill face-to-face with each child.

Because of this, you have flexibility in your schedule, but you also need to be hard-working, self-motivated, and efficient with time management.

Most importantly, we are looking for someone with an easy-going personality, who is quick on their feet, passionate about helping children with special needs, and always open to learning!

Regarding CF applicants :

We are not accepting clinical fellows at this time, unless the most recent externship was completed in the pediatric hospital or PPEC setting.

In this case, a reference call with externship supervisor will be required as part of the interview process.

Responsibilities :

Assess and diagnose a variety of speech, language, and feeding disorders for the medical population, ages birth to 21.

Develop individualized treatment plans following a comprehensive evaluation to address clients' communication and swallowing difficulties.

Utilize evidence-based practice in therapy sessions tailored to each client's specific needs.

Complete all documentation and treatment plans in a timely, thorough manner.

Provide education and guidance to clients, families, and caregivers on strategies for carry-over therapy at home.

Collaborate with other healthcare professionals, such as physicians, nurses, and fellow therapists, to coordinate comprehensive care for clients.

Stay current with advancements in the field through continuing education and professional development activities.

Adhere to ethical and professional standards outlined by the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) and state licensing boards.

Qualifications :

Possession of a master's degree in speech-language pathology from an accredited program, your Certificate of Clinical Competence (CCC) from ASHA, and state licensure from the Department of Health.

Clinical experience working with the pediatric population (medical pediatric population strongly preferred).

Strong interpersonal and communication skills to collaborate effectively with clients, families, and interdisciplinary teams.

Proficiency using standardized assessment tools, therapeutic interventions, and assistive technologies relevant to the field.

Commitment to maintaining professional competency and adhering to HIPAA policies and ethical standards.

Current CPR (BLS) certificate.

Benefits :

(for full-time employees) Flexible schedule!

Start / end time and daily scheduling of patients is heavily up to therapist, as long as caseload productivity is being met.

We are open Saturdays if you’d like the opportunity to see extra hours, but this is not required.

PTO accrual and paid holidays 401K or Student Loan Reimbursement Health Benefits or HRA plan Vision and Dental Benefits Life Insurance (Basic and Voluntary) Long-Term Care with Death Benefit FSA - Dependent Care Short- and Long-Term Disability Insurance packages Always Closed Nights, Sundays, and Major Holidays!
