PRESENTER: Julia McCaffrey, MS,CCC-SLP
AUDIENCE: Undergraduate, graduate students, Clinical Fellows, Clinicians who would like to transition from school-based SLP to medical-based SLP.
Description: In 2019, only 12.4% of ASHA’s 181,628 registered SLP’s reported working primarily in a “hospital”. A frequent complaint of graduate students and prospective CFY’s with a strong interest in becoming a medical SLP is that it’s exceptionally difficult to get your foot in the door in the hospital setting. Many ask- how do I begin my hospital SLP career if no one will even interview me without having had prior hospital SLP work experience? This 60-minute webinar plus Q&A will offer advice and tips from a hospital based SLP manager on how to improve your chances of getting that desired job in the hospital setting.
Presenter:

She received her Masters of Science in Speech Language Pathology from Vanderbilt University. In 2017, she accepted a position as manager for the SLP department at a large inpatient rehab hospital in Los Angeles. She feels very fortunate to currently supervise a team of 27 exceptionally dedicated and amazing SLP’s.
