Job Description
Speech-Language Pathologist (SLP)
Part-Time | Cambridge Village of Wilmington | Wilmington, NC
Communication. Cognition. Connection.
What if your SLP practice could be about more than treating a diagnosis?
At Prava, we believe speech-language pathology in senior living should help people communicate, participate, connect, and continue living independently.
We're looking for a part-time Speech-Language Pathologist (SLP) to join our team at Cambridge Village of Wilmington.
This is an opportunity for an SLP who wants the flexibility of a part-time role without sacrificing clinical quality or connection to the people they serve.
- Your work will matter beyond the therapy session.
- You may work with a resident who is having difficulty finding words.
- Someone whose cognition has changed.
- Someone who is struggling to safely manage meals.
- Someone who has become less confident communicating with friends.
- Someone whose cognitive changes are beginning to affect their independence.
- Your job isn't simply to treat the impairment.
- It's to help the person keep participating in life.
What You'll Do
Evaluate residents and develop individualized plans of care
Provide Skilled Speech-language Pathology Services
- Address communication, cognition, swallowing, and related functional needs within your scope of practice
- Help residents maintain independence and participation
- Provide education to residents, families, and caregivers
- Collaborate with nursing, caregivers, wellness staff, and other members of the interdisciplinary team
- Identify changes in communication, cognition, or swallowing that warrant clinical attention
- Incorporate functional, real-world activities into treatment
- Document efficiently using Prava's modern technology and AI-enabled tools
- Contribute to a culture that values clinical excellence and meaningful outcomes
- Senior living is your clinical laboratory.
- A therapy session doesn't have to look like a therapy session.
- It might happen at the dining table.
- During a conversation.
- While navigating a community activity.
- While practicing a real-world cognitive strategy.
- While helping a resident develop strategies to remain safely independent.
- The best intervention is often the one that transfers into everyday life.
We're Looking for an SLP Who
- Holds a current North Carolina SLP license
- Has ASHA certification or meets applicable requirements
- Has a genuine interest in working with older adults
- Is clinically confident and highly collaborative
- Has strong communication and interpersonal skills
- Thinks beyond the diagnosis
- Understands the importance of functional outcomes
- Can work independently while staying connected to the interdisciplinary team
- Wants a flexible role with meaningful clinical impact
- Senior living experience is a plus, but not required.
Why Prava?
- Prava was built specifically around rehabilitation in senior living.
- You'll have the infrastructure of a growing organization while maintaining the autonomy of a clinician.
- Modern technology.
- AI-enabled documentation.
- Clinical standards and support.
- Operational infrastructure.
- An embedded community model.
And Most Importantly
A philosophy that puts the resident—not the diagnosis—at the center of care.
