About This Role
This home-based speech therapy role focuses on delivering patient care in clients' homes throughout the Gold River area. You'll conduct assessments, develop treatment plans, and provide direct therapy for patients with speech, language, swallowing, and voice disorders. The position offers the flexibility of home health work, allowing you to build meaningful relationships with patients in a familiar, comfortable setting rather than a clinical environment. You'll work independently while having support from Interim HealthCare's established network and resources. This role suits SLPs who value direct patient interaction, prefer autonomy in their practice, and want to see tangible progress in their clients' communication and quality of life. A valid California license and reliable transportation are essential.

Frequently asked questions
What license do I need to apply?
An active state license in your discipline (PT, OT, SLP, LCSW, LPC, BCBA, etc.) in good standing. Therapy licensure is state-specific — the PT, OT, and ASLP-IC compacts let you practice in member states without a separate license.
Is this a school-year or year-round position?
School-based therapy roles typically follow a 9- or 10-month school-year calendar with summers off. Outpatient, hospital, home-health, and telehealth positions are year-round with PTO. Both options are widely available — check the job description for specifics.
What experience is expected?
Most therapy roles welcome new grads through mid-career clinicians. Specialty positions (acute care, NICU, pediatric feeding, hand therapy) typically prefer 2+ years plus relevant certifications.
