Find & Apply For Speech Language Pathology Assistant Jobs in Tumwater, Washington

You didn't become an SLPA to sit in a beige room with a stack of worksheets. And we didn't build VITA to be an ordinary pediatric clinic. VITA Pediatrics is a growing, highly collaborative pediatric practice in the Pacific Northwest, where therapy is active, creative, relationship-driven, and FUN! Our kids move. Our therapists move. Our sessions might involve an obstacle course, a swing, a game, a messy activity, a big win, or a completely different plan than the one you walked in with ;) We're looking for an SLPA who brings great energy, takes initiative, loves kids, and wants to be part of building something special.

THE ROLE

As an SLPA at VITA, you'll work with pediatric clients under the supervision of an SLP to carry out individualized treatment plans and help kids build meaningful communication skills. But we want you to bring YOU to the session. Your creativity. Your ideas. Your personality. Your ability to turn a goal into something a child actually wants to do. You'll also get to work alongside a multidisciplinary team of speech, occupational, and physical therapy professionals who believe kids do best when we work together.
