Mid Level
Step into a transformative travel role as a Speech Language Pathologist in Rolla, Missouri, with a start date of February 16, 2026. This is your moment to blend clinical excellence with compassionate care, guiding individuals of all ages toward clearer communication, safer swallowing, and renewed confidence in daily life. In this role you will apply your specialized expertise to comprehensive evaluations and individualized treatment plans that honor each patient’s goals and strengths. From early language development in children to cognitive-communication and swallowing strategies in adults, your work will foster meaningful improvements that ripple through families, classrooms, clinics, and communities. Rolla offers a welcoming, close-knit environment where you can grow as a clinician while savoring the sense of purpose that comes from helping people express themselves, connect with others, and participate more fully in the moments that matter. Beyond the clinic, you’ll have the chance to explore Missouri’s natural beauty—the Ozarks’ scenic trails, lush parks, and vibrant regional culture—creating a balanced rhythm between professional impact and personal discovery in a state known for its hometown warmth and outdoor appeal.
Location Benefits: Rolla, Missouri, presents a compelling base of operations for a dedicated Speech Language Pathologist who values community collaboration and high-quality care. The city blends affordable living with a supportive healthcare ecosystem, where you’ll work alongside seasoned professionals in settings ranging from outpatient clinics to rehabilitation centers. Rolla is a gateway to Missouri’s rich landscapes and outdoor opportunities, including lush trails, waterways, and cultural events that offer refreshing breaks between patient sessions. For clinicians who relish variety, this role also provides the possibility of assignments at facilities in other U.S. locations, delivering diverse patient populations, settings, and collaboration opportunities. You’ll enjoy the stability of a role anchored in a recognizable community while remaining connected to a nationwide network that champions your growth and mobility. The overarching experience centers on clinical excellence, professional camaraderie, and the chance to expand your professional horizons while enjoying the unique benefits and experiences Missouri’s Rolla region provides—creating memories that extend beyond the therapy room.
Role Specifics and Benefits: As a Speech Language Pathologist on this travel assignment, your core responsibilities will span the full spectrum of speech, language, voice, fluency, and swallowing care. You will perform comprehensive assessments, interpret results, and develop evidence-based, client-centered treatment plans. You’ll deliver targeted therapy, implement augmentative and alternative communication strategies when appropriate, and monitor progress with rigorous documentation in electronic health records. Collaboration will be a cornerstone of your practice: you’ll partner with families, physicians, educators, and other therapists to align goals, transitions, and discharge planning, ensuring continuity of care across settings. Your clinical growth will be fostered through exposure to diverse caseloads and cross-site mentorship, with opportunities to specialize in pediatric language development, adult neurogenic disorders, dysphagia management, or voice therapy, depending on site needs and your interests. The role also offers meaningful professional development through continuing education opportunities, case conferences, and leadership experiences in program development.
Compensation benefits are designed to recognize your expertise and commitment. You will earn a competitive weekly pay range of $2,143–$2,212, with potential eligibility for performance-based bonuses. Housing assistance is available to ease relocation and housing logistics, and contract extensions provide a pathway to longer-term placements while expanding your clinical footprint. Our program includes robust support structures, including 24/7 assistance for traveling clinicians, ensuring you have real-time guidance, safety nets, and rapid problem-solving wherever your assignments take you. While this position lists Weeks as the duration and does not guarantee hours, you’ll receive scheduled assignments aligned with client needs and your availability, with the flexibility to extend contracts based on performance and interest. Additionally, you’ll benefit from a collegial, patient-centered culture that values your perspective, provides mentorship, and supports your professional trajectory within a nationwide network of healthcare professionals.
Company Values: Our organization is dedicated to empowering Speech Language Pathologists and other clinicians to advance their careers within a supportive, collaborative environment. We invest in your ongoing professional development, recognize your contributions, and celebrate client outcomes as a shared success. The culture emphasizes autonomy balanced with teamwork, open communication, and a commitment to work-life balance, ensuring you feel valued, heard, and equipped to deliver exceptional care. We believe in removing barriers to growth—whether through access to funding for certifications, cross-location exposure, or paths to leadership roles—so you can build a long, rewarding career that aligns with your personal and professional goals.

Embrace the adventure of travel healthcare with a role that respects your clinical judgment, supports your development, and rewards your dedication with competitive compensation and comprehensive benefits.
