Silver Spring, MD
Contracted
Fairland Center
Mid Level
Embark on a meaningful journey as a Speech Language Pathologist in Maryland, beginning March 10, 2026, with a travel-ready assignment designed to amplify your impact across the lifespan. This opportunity places you in Silver Spring, a vibrant hub just outside Washington, DC, while also offering the chance to work in varied locations across the United States. You’ll operate in a supportive, clinic-driven environment that values evidence-based practice, collaboration, and compassionate care. Imagine guiding children to discover confident communication, helping adults reclaim meaningful interactions, and supporting eating and swallowing safety—while you grow professionally, expand your clinical repertoire, and experience the rich tapestry of communities Maryland has to offer. From the Chesapeake Bay’s shimmering waters to the rolling hills and historic neighborhoods that characterize the state, Maryland invites you to weave your professional journey with nature, culture, and historic charm. The opportunity to balance impactful clinical work with weekend explorations in nearby parks, museums, and diverse dining scenes makes this role not only rewarding but also deeply enriching on a personal level.

Location benefits go beyond Silver Spring’s convenient proximity to the capital region. Working in Silver Spring means exposure to a diverse patient population, a collaborative medical community, and access to cutting-edge therapies and interdisciplinary teams. You’ll enjoy easy commutes, modern clinics, and a range of housing options in a dynamic suburban-urban blend. For clinicians who crave variety, this program opens pathways to assignments across the U.S., allowing you to refine your craft in different clinical settings—from early intervention hubs to outpatient suites—while building a nationwide network of peers and mentors. The experience can broaden your clinical perspective, sharpen your adaptive communication skills, and deepen your understanding of cultural and linguistic diversity, all while you savor the distinct flavors of each region you visit. Maryland’s scenic weekends and the opportunity to explore nearby national and state parks add a restorative rhythm to a demanding, fulfilling career—an ideal balance for a dedicated Speech Language Pathologist.

Role specifics and benefits:
- Core responsibilities: Conduct comprehensive evaluations of speech, language, voice, fluency, resonance, cognition, and feeding/swallowing concerns across pediatric and adult populations. Develop and implement individualized, evidence-based treatment plans; deliver direct therapy and caregiver coaching; support augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) strategies; monitor progress and adjust interventions to maximize outcomes; collaborate with families, educators, physicians, and other therapists; maintain accurate documentation in electronic medical records; participate in team rounds and quality-improvement initiatives; ensure compliance with regulatory standards and professional ethics; provide patient and family education that empowers ongoing practice at home and in school or work settings.
- Professional growth: Extend your clinical expertise through exposure to diverse caseloads and settings, pursue specialty certifications or advanced modalities, engage in mentoring relationships with seasoned clinicians, and access continuing education stipends and structured career development pathways that align with your professional goals. This role is designed to expand your clinical flexibility and leadership potential, with opportunities to take on mentoring, program development, or supervisory responsibilities as you gain experience.
- Benefits and support: Excellent compensation with a weekly range of $2,042 to $2,162, backed by guaranteed hours of 35 per week. Acknowledging the value of your expertise, the package includes a signing bonus where applicable, housing assistance to ease relocation or housing transitions, and opportunities to extend assignments for continuity of care and ongoing growth. You’ll be part of a travel-focused, supportive network that offers 24/7 assistance while you’re on assignment, ensuring you have timely help and resources whenever you need them. Additional program features may include travel stipends, per diem options, and access to a robust clinical support team that can assist with complex cases, documentation, and coordination across sites.
- Company values: Our organization is built on empowering staff to advance their careers within a compassionate, collaborative culture. We are committed to supporting your professional development, recognizing your expertise, and fostering a work environment where you can thrive, learn, and feel valued. Expect constructive feedback, mentorship opportunities, and a community of clinicians who share best practices and a collective dedication to superior patient outcomes.
