Speech Therapist (SLP) - PRN

Sprenger Health Care Systems•Jackson Township, OH

About The Position

If you’ve worked as an SLP in skilled nursing and felt like the documentation, the productivity standards, and the pressure to see one more patient were pulling you away from the reason you became a speech pathologist — this role is intentionally different. We are an in-house, family-owned therapy organization — not a contract therapy company. Our SLPs are given the clinical space to do what they were trained to do — evaluate, treat, and genuinely change the lives of the residents in their care. Our therapy teams operate differently — and it shows in our retention and culture.
