Ever feel like you're doing everything except the job you signed up for?
Endless productivity demands, copy-paste treatment plans, a broken laminator, and that one coworker who insists on group lunches...
If you're ready to work somewhere that values your time, your talent, and your sanity — Visiting Rehab and Nursing Services (VRNS) might be your perfect fit.
We’re clinician-owned (yes, actual clinicians), and we know the difference between busy and productive in Home Health. We’re hiring a Full Time Speech Language Pathologist (SLPA) in the Carver residential area of Massachusetts who want to do meaningful work in the field — with the freedom to build a schedule that doesn’t require cloning yourself.

What You’ll Get (Besides Thank-You Notes, high fives and good vibes):
- $32 per visit — because “you’re making such a difference” doesn’t pay the electric bill.
- Flexible Scheduling — Set your hours. Keep your sanity.
- Full-Time Benefits — Medical, dental, vision — because your well-being matters too.
- PTO Paid Holidays — Yes, we want you to take time off. No guilt included.
- 401(k) with Match — For future-you’s beach house (or backyard shed of peace).
- Mileage Reimbursement — $0.62/mile, because you’re not driving for fun.
- Useful, Ongoing Training — We promise not to make you sit through a 2-hour webinar about nothing.
- Perks & Discounts — Because you should save somewhere, even if it’s just movie tickets.
________________________________________
What You’ll Be Doing:
- Helping patients make real progress with communication, cognition, and confidence — all under the supervision of an SLP.
- Delivering in-home care that’s tailored, not templated.
- Updating documentation without the soul-crushing system delays.
- Keeping patients, families, and your team in the loop — and on the same page.
- Problem-solving on the go (possibly while dodging small dogs and chatty neighbors).
