Job Description & Requirements
Speech & Language Pathologist - Home Health - (SLP - HH)
StartDate: ASAP
Available Shifts: 8 D
Pay Rate: $2155.00 - $2221.00
This home health Speech-Language Pathologist position is based in Honolulu, Hawaii, and serves patients across the island of Oahu. Honolulu offers a rare combination of stunning natural beauty and the amenities of a modern city, making it an attractive destination for clinicians seeking both professional fulfillment and an exceptional lifestyle. You can finish your day with a walk on world-famous beaches, explore lush hiking trails, or enjoy a vibrant dining scene that reflects Honolulu’s rich mix of Hawaiian, Asian, and Pacific Island cultures.
Honolulu is known for its year-round warm weather, easy access to outdoor activities such as surfing, paddleboarding, snorkeling, and hiking, and a strong sense of community. Residents appreciate the relaxed island pace, while still benefiting from urban conveniences, cultural events, museums, festivals, and a lively arts and food scene. Working in home health here allows you to truly experience the island and its neighborhoods, from coastal communities to more urban areas, while building meaningful relationships with patients and families in their own homes.
In this role, you will provide one-on-one, evidence-based speech-language pathology services to patients in their home or community settings. Typical patients may include adults and older adults recovering from stroke or other neurologic conditions, individuals with voice or language disorders, and patients with swallowing and cognitive-communication impairments. Depending on agency needs, you may also see occasional pediatric or young adult cases. The focus is on functional, patient-centered care that supports safety, independence, and quality of life within the home environment.
Your responsibilities will include completing comprehensive speech, language, cognitive-communication, and swallowing evaluations; developing individualized plans of care; setting functional goals in collaboration with patients and families; and delivering skilled interventions that promote communication and swallowing safety. You will educate patients, caregivers, and family members on strategies, home exercise programs, and environmental modifications, and you will coordinate with interdisciplinary team members to ensure cohesive, high-quality care.
A typical day involves traveling between patient homes across the Honolulu area and broader Oahu region, managing a caseload that allows for focused, unhurried one-to-one care. Patient visit frequency and daily visit volumes are structured to support high-quality documentation, communication with the care team, and appropriate travel time between homes. You will collaborate closely with nursing, physical therapy, occupational therapy, and other disciplines to support holistic, integrated home health services.
You will use an electronic medical record system to document evaluations, daily notes, progress updates, and discharge summaries, with support from office and clinical leadership to ensure you have the tools needed to be efficient and effective in the field. Orientation and ongoing professional support are provided to help you become comfortable with the service area, workflow, and documentation requirements.
Shifts are typically daytime, weekday hours, with some flexibility based on patient needs and agency scheduling practices. Weekend or occasional on-call coverage may be requested, depending on census and staffing patterns, but the overall schedule is designed to support work-life balance. The role offers the opportunity to work relatively independently during the day while still being part of a supportive, collaborative clinical team.
This position is an excellent fit for a Speech-Language Pathologist who enjoys autonomy, values developing long-term relationships with patients and families, and is excited about providing care in the dynamic and diverse communities of Honolulu and Oahu. It is also ideal for clinicians who want to expand their experience in home health, build strong clinical skills in functional, community-based practice, and enjoy the unique personal and professional rewards of living and working in Hawaii.
