As a speech-language pathologist (SLP), you work with patients of all ages to treat their communication disorders or swallowing difficulties. Although this is traditionally an in-office position, there are also opportunities to work from home where you provide teletherapy and virtual treatment to patients via phone or video conference. In this type of remote role, your responsibilities may involve teaching patients how to make speech sounds or helping to develop social communication, literacy, language fluency, or cognitive communication abilities.
