What Makes This Opportunity Different?
This isn’t a high-volume outpatient setting! You’ll typically treat 6–7 residents per day, giving you more time for individualized, one-on-one care and meaningful patient relationships.

Legacy is excited to begin our new partnership with The Terraces at Kingwood Town Center! You'll step into an established caseload while having the opportunity to help shape Legacy's presence within the community, build meaningful relationships, and contribute to the continued success and growth of the therapy program.
As a Speech Language Pathologist, you will:
- Provide individualized, one-on-one occupational therapy services to residents.
- Evaluate residents and develop treatment plans based on clinical findings and functional goals.
- Help residents improve independence with everyday activities.
- Collaborate with residents, families, and the interdisciplinary team to support meaningful outcomes.
- Provide functional treatment throughout the community based on each resident’s needs.
- 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
