Job Description

  • Speech-Language Pathologist (SLP) — Home Health
  • Schedule: Full-time Monday–Friday + occasional weekends (as needed)
  • Location: Field-based Georgetown/Hutto
  • Comp: $75 per point $100,000-$130,000 annually

Who We Are

Adaptive Home Health is building a higher-acuity, patient-centered, skilled home health model across Texas. Our mission is to dramatically improve patient access to home health care.

The SLP role is a core part of that mission: you restore communication, cognition, and swallow safety so patients can function safely at home — and you build caregiver carryover so progress sticks between visits.

We also build technology to support field clinicians. Our charting product reduces documentation burden, and our scheduling product (launching soon) will make routing and visit coordination easier — protecting your time.

What You Will Do

Own outcomes, not just visits: you are accountable for the patient’s SLP plan, progression, and functional outcomes.

Complete comprehensive in-home SLP evaluations and deliver skilled SLP visits.

Assess and Treat (As Ordered/clinically Indicated)

Aphasia and Other Communication Disorders

  • Cognitive-communication impairment (attention, memory, executive function) impacting safety and independence
  • Dysphagia screening/assessment and swallow safety education (within home health scope and orders)
  • Build and execute a clear plan of care with measurable, functional goals.
  • Drive multidisciplinary coordination: communicate changes in condition, align on orders, and keep the care team moving.
  • Coach patients/caregivers with practical strategies and routines that actually get done.
  • Document promptly and thoroughly in Homecare Homebase (HCHB) — defensible, efficient, and consistent.

Why Adaptive

Operations that back you up: you are supported by an experienced clinical and operational team so you can focus on patient care, not chasing logistics.

Clear productivity model with upside: you are paid per productivity point with clear expectations (market-specific).

Schedule flexibility: we build schedules to make field work sustainable, and we support smart routing and coordination so your day is predictable whenever possible.

Cutting-edge tech built for clinicians: charting tools reduce documentation burden, and scheduling (launching soon) will streamline routing/coordination and reduce last-minute changes.

Mission-driven work: we are here to expand access to high-quality home health care, and we want clinicians who take pride in raising the standard.
