Speech Language Pathologist - PRN Weekends
About The Position
Rehab Without Walls Neuro Rehabilitation is hiring a PRN, weekend Speech-Language Pathologist to provide neuro-focused rehabilitation to adult patients in home and community settings. The role supports people recovering from neurological injury or illness as they work to rebuild communication, cognition, swallowing, and participation in daily life. Treatment focuses on functional progress in real-world settings rather than a traditional clinic environment. Clinicians are matched to a localized geographic hub closest to their home base: Southern Hub (Portland area), Central Hub (Augusta and Waterville area), Midcoast Hub (Thomaston area), or Penobscot/Eastern Hub (Dexter and Bucksport area). The position offers flexibility and autonomy over weekly schedule and caseload size, with clustered routing. Clinical work and on-site documentation are paid at competitive hourly rates, qualifying drive time between sessions is paid at $40 per hour according to company routing policies, and mileage is reimbursed. Documentation is completed during paid on-site treatment blocks, with no take-home paperwork. Rehab Without Walls is an affiliate of BrightSpring Health Services. Its neurorehabilitation program provides care in patients’ natural home and community environments, including the home, community, workplace, or school, to help people affected by brain injury, spinal cord injury, or stroke/CVA regain functional capabilities and independence.
