This is a predominantly clinic-based paediatric Speech Pathology role from the Malvern East clinic. Your caseload may include children requiring support with speech sound development, receptive and expressive language, social communication, early language, literacy, phonological awareness, fluency, AAC, Developmental Language Disorder, Childhood Apraxia of Speech, autism and other developmental differences.
