Description:

Fusion Therapy Center is seeking a Speech-Language Pathologist who genuinely enjoys working independently in the community and wants travel-based therapy to be the primary focus of their position. This role provides pediatric speech and language therapy at partner daycares, preschools, schools, and other community locations throughout Northwest Arkansas through Fusion's mobile therapy program. This is a travel-focused position. While in-clinic patients may occasionally be used to help bridge openings, build the clinician's caseload, or maintain productive hours, the long-term intent of this role is to develop and maintain a primarily travel-based caseload. As part of your total rewards, we are pleased to offer a competitive sign-on bonus. We are looking for a clinician who enjoys variety, autonomy, relationship-building with community partners, and providing high-quality care outside of a traditional clinic setting.
