Mid Level
Embark on a rewarding travel assignment as a Speech Language Pathologist in Reedley, California, starting on 01/05/2026. This is your opportunity to guide patients of all ages toward clearer communication, safer swallowing, and richer expressive lives across diverse settings—from school-based programs and outpatient clinics to specialty care and community outreach. As you apply your expertise, you’ll build meaningful, measurable progress with individualized plans, family coaching, and collaborative teamwork. Picture yourself leveraging evidence-based practice, data-driven progress notes, and compassionate care to empower clients to connect, learn, and thrive. And when you need a spark of inspiration beyond the clinic walls, California’s famous landscapes—reed-lined orchards, rolling hills surrounding Reedley, the Sierra foothills within a short drive, and easy access to outdoor adventures—offer refreshing contrast to the daily routine and plenty of opportunities to recharge your passion for patient-centered care.

Location benefits play a central role in this opportunity. Reedley, a welcoming California community known for its agricultural heritage and tight-knit neighborhoods, provides a supportive environment for clinicians who value work–life balance and professional growth. You’ll enjoy proximity to excellent schools, family-friendly amenities, and opportunities to collaborate with multidisciplinary teams in a setting that emphasizes personalized care. The broader California playground—world-class hiking, coastlines, wine country, and urban hubs—means you can tailor your downtime to your interests, from weekend excursions to cultural experiences, all while delivering high-quality therapy. This assignment also opens the door to working in other locations across the U.S. as needed, offering exposure to diverse patient populations, different practice models, and a broader network of peers and mentors. The blend of a stable regional base with the potential for nationwide assignments creates a dynamic career path where you can see tangible outcomes in your clients and in your own professional trajectory.

Role specifics and benefits set the stage for a fulfilling experience. As the traveling Speech Language Pathologist, your core responsibilities will include comprehensive screenings and formal evaluations, individualized treatment planning, and direct therapy across pediatric and adult populations. You’ll implement evidence-based speech, language, voice, fluency, resonance, and swallowing therapies, adjust interventions based on ongoing data collection, and document progress accurately for families, schools, care teams, and payers. Collaboration with teachers, physicians, audiologists, and social workers will be essential to coordinate care, explain goals, and align strategies with IEPs or clinical care plans. You’ll have opportunities to expand your scope through specialty techniques, augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) integration, and teletherapy when appropriate, enabling you to tailor services to each client’s unique needs. Growth opportunities abound: take on mentoring roles for junior clinicians, lead quality-improvement initiatives, or participate in program development that elevates care standards. The package includes a competitive weekly pay of $2,553–$2,621, with housing assistance to ease relocation, a sign-on bonus, and extension opportunities that can translate a temporary assignment into a longer-term engagement. While guaranteed hours are listed as 0.0, your schedule will be structured on contractual needs with clear expectations, with ample chances to secure additional hours or extend contracts based on performance, fit, and community needs. In addition, you’ll receive 24/7 support from a dedicated travel team while you’re on assignment, ensuring you’re never navigating a new setting alone, whether you’re coordinating with a new school district, clinic, or hospital partner, or addressing any urgent needs that arise during travel.

Company values emphasize empowerment, career advancement, and a supportive work environment. The organization is rooted in a clinician-first mindset, recognizing that your expertise is the engine of better patient outcomes. You’ll find opportunities for continuing education, professional development stipends, and structured mentorship to help you ascend within the field of speech-language pathology. The culture centers on open communication, collaborative problem-solving, and recognition of your contributions to teams and communities. You’ll be encouraged to innovate, share best practices, and expand your professional footprint across multiple settings and populations, all while maintaining the high standards of compassionate care that define the field.

Call to action: if you’re ready to blend compassionate clinical care with the adventure of travel and the certainty of growth, apply now. Join a company that values your expertise, supports your professional development, and stands beside you every step of the way—from initial placement through program extensions and beyond. This is your chance to make a lasting impact on clients and families while exploring California’s beauty and the diverse landscapes of the United States through meaningful, mission-driven work as a Speech Language Pathologist in Reedley and beyond.
