Job Description:

Join our team as an inpatient Speech-Language Pathologist (SLP) working in a rehabilitation setting that feels more like a well-organized team than a traditional hospital environment. This 13-week contract offers the chance to deliver therapy to patients recovering from diverse neurological and orthopedic conditions. You'll work four days a week, 10 hours per day, focusing on rehabilitative care that helps patients regain their communication and swallowing skills. Bring your first-time travel experience and your Kansas SLP license to make an immediate impact in this steady, supportive setting that values your expertise and dedication. Your day will be filled with meaningful patient interactions, assessments, therapy planning, and collaboration with a committed multidisciplinary team—without the usual patient care responsibilities that come with bedside nursing.
