About The Position

Aria Care Partners is seeking an Audiologist or Hearing Instrument Specialist to provide mobile, patient-centered hearing care to residents of skilled nursing facilities. Clinicians provide bedside care to patients ranging from people with disabilities to older adults, helping diagnose and treat hearing conditions.
