Patient booking, cash register registration, reviewing referrals, as well as participating in various types of networks and standard employee representation duties are other examples of job responsibilities that are common in our operations.

Our units receive students from KI, the Department of Speech and Language Pathology, for practice-integrated learning, and as a speech therapist with us, all with at least two years of clinical experience are expected to supervise students.
