Speech Therapy Clinical Fellowship

Overview:

Brooks Rehabilitation offers excellent care, state of the art technology, and evidenced-base practices in addition to going beyond what is expected and becoming the future of rehabilitation. Each year the program accepts Master’s level graduates who are seeking mentorship through Brooks Rehabilitation to complete their mandatory postgraduate Clinical Fellowship Year (CFY) with criteria set by the American Speech and Language Hearing Association (ASHA). The Speech Therapy Clinical Fellowship with Brooks Rehabilitation fosters completion of mentorship requirements of ASHA in addition to providing an elevated clinical fellowship experience. Our SLPs will not only be able to meet requirements for their governing body to receive final licensure, but will receive increased mentorship hours beyond what the minimal requirement is, didactic learning hours, professional engagement to present lectures and the opportunity to rotate or shadow clinical work in different clinical settings across the Brooks’ System of Care. The Speech Fellowship with Brooks Rehabilitation ensures that postgraduate SLPs receive an experience that is beyond a traditional CFY. The program is a year-long and fellows will gain experience working with multiple diagnoses including spinal cord injury, brain injury, and stroke populations. The CF Program accepts approximately one to three fellows per year who will have the opportunity to rotate through both inpatient and skilled nursing settings.
