Job Description
Make an impact. Change lives. Live a Legacy.

Position Highlights
- Up to $50/hr
- Approximately 6 hours weekly

What Makes This Opportunity Different?
This isn’t a high-volume outpatient setting! You’ll typically treat 2-3 residents per day, giving you more time for individualized, one-on-one care and meaningful patient relationships. Therapy also goes beyond the rehab gym! You’ll work with residents throughout the community, including their apartments, providing care in the spaces where they live and move every day.
Lake Travis is an active senior living community with resident activities, classes, and programming throughout the day. Legacy has proudly served the community for over five years, so you’ll be joining an established therapy team with strong relationships on-site. And you won’t be doing it alone! You’ll have a supportive Rehabilitation Director and dedicated mentorship as you get started, including weekly check-ins during your first few weeks.
As a Speech-Language Pathologist, you will:
- Evaluate and treat swallowing, communication, and cognitive disorders using evidence-based techniques
- Develop individualized treatment plans based on each resident's needs and goals
- Provide one-on-one, functional therapy to improve independence and quality of life
- Collaborate with the care team to coordinate treatment and support positive patient outcomes
- Your Legacy career offers great experiences, work/life balance, and excellent rewards, including:
- 401(k)
- Medical, dental, vision, prescription, and pet insurance
- Paid time off (PTO) with rollover and buyout options at year’s end
- Company-paid group life insurance
- Flexible spending account
- Voluntary life, short-term disability, and long-term disability insurance
- Licensure reimbursement
- MedBridge access with unlimited online continuing education for full-time employees
Invest in Your Clinical Growth
Legacy’s Skills Development Program provides eligible full- and part-time employees with financial support toward approved professional certifications after one year of employment. Opportunities for therapy professionals include certifications in geriatrics, LSVT BIG, lymphedema, dementia care, and more.
