MedSLP Summer Internship Opportunity: Hospital in Houston, TX

Memorial Hermann Hospital in Houston, Texas has a full-time summer internship spot available for one of our students!

 

This would be a position that is primarily adult but with some pediatric as well.  Here are the details:

 

The adult caseload would involve acute care evaluations and treatment for swallowing, speech/language, communication, and cognition (medical, trauma, neuro, cardiac, oncology, and burn).  We regularly do inpatient and outpatient MBSS (all ages, infant to geriatric) and a lot of inpatient FEES (a few pediatric, mostly adults).    On the pediatric side, we see an occasional infant with cleft lip/palate in the NICU.  O.T. sees all other children for feeding < 6 months of age.  We see children 6 months and up for speech/language, cognition, and swallowing.  Two of our therapists regularly attend cleft team where they see outpatients with cleft lip/palate.   There are also a few outpatient children seen for speech/language, which are seen primarily by a part-time pediatric therapist.’

 

Please let me know ASAP if you are interested!

 

Thank you,

Kelsey
