Join BAYADA Home Health Care as a dedicated Speech Language Pathologist (SLP) in a flexible Per Diem role, conducting home health visits for our office in Columbia, Maryland!
This opportunity involves seeing approximately 5-10 clients weekly from 8:30 AM to 5:00 PM, Monday through Friday.

Key Responsibilities of the Speech Language Pathologist (SLP):
- Conduct home visits for clients in specified geographic territories.
- Perform comprehensive evaluations to assess, diagnose, and offer therapeutic interventions for clients experiencing speech, language, communication, or swallowing challenges.
- Formulate treatment plans based on evaluations, physician orders, and established goals.
- Continuously assess and adjust the speech therapy care plan, collaborating with BAYADA clinicians on the multidisciplinary care plan as needed.
- Provide education and guidance to patients, family members, or other representatives on rehabilitative care and activities to enhance the client's health, safety, and independence.
- Thoroughly document observations, interventions, and evaluations related to patient care using advanced technology, including a touch pad tablet.
