Our medically-based feeding team is seeking an experienced SLP feeding therapist to provide evidence-based, responsive, family-centered feeding therapy. The team currently serves the pediatric inpatient units (level III NICU, Pediatrics, PICU, well baby) as well as our multidisciplinary outpatient clinic. We work closely with our Dietician and IBCLC colleagues. The majority of our inpatient caseload is NICU where we are well-integrated. We support a diverse community of families and treat a wide range of feeding challenges including infant feeding, transition to solids, dysphagia, sensory feeding, tube weans, ARFID, etc from neonates to teens.

*Offering a $5000 sign-on bonus as well!

Hours are guaranteed.

Pay is determined by years of worked experience.

Full benefits package (medical, dental, vision, short-term disability, etc) with various medical plans ranging from high deductible to more traditional co-pay plans. Also discounted plan for staying within healthcare system. Benefits begin from day 1 with core positions of 24+ hours/week. Benefits deducted from paycheck pre-tax. 401k and FMLA also available. 

Monday–Friday is expected for first 90 days (probationary period). Increased flexibility (e.g., 9–10h days) can be offered thereafter as long as department needs are met. 

On call weekend rotation (usually ~1x per month, Sat/Sun 8a–12p) for new/urgent feeding orders if working on inpatient units. If therapist comes in to see patient, time is paid at 1.5x so long as full core hours worked during week.  Inpatient therapists also rotate holiday coverage.  

PTO is accrued at a percentage of worked hours, with percent increasing at year 1, 4, 9, etc. Sick time, personal time included in PTO. PTO is requested through UKG program or email, nearly always approved as long as coverage is in place if applicable.

Outpatient clinic is typically closed most major holidays but not all federal holidays. Therapists may choose to take specific federal holidays off via regular PTO request process. PTO is used for holiday closures. Inpatient on call coverage is expected on team rotational schedule.  

Productivity is generally monitored, but expectation is related to scheduling (e.g., outpatient – 45 min sessions, 9 patients scheduled in an 8hr day, average 15–20% cancellation/no show rate across a week). Inpatient productivity is more fluid/less rigid to account for non-billable responsibilities (rounds, staffings, etc).
