Speech-Language Pathology Fellowship
UF Health Jacksonville is proud to offer an annual speech-language pathology clinical fellowship in acute care. The American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) requires a clinical fellowship following the completion of academic coursework and clinical practicum. UF Health Jacksonville offers a wide range of health care services and mentorship from specialized and board certified clinicians ideal for a clinical fellow (CF) to develop skills in caring for a diverse population of patients. Skill development will take place in acute care at our Level 1 trauma hospital.
The CF program includes experience diagnosing and managing various disorders across the lifespan including specialized services such as Videofluoroscopic Swallow Studies, Flexible Fiberoptic Endoscopic Evaluation of Swallowing, head and neck cancer care, and trauma and TBI management, as well as tracheostomy, Passy-Muir Valve and ventilator care. The CF will gain experience working with a multidisciplinary team with doctors, residents, nurses, occupational therapists, physical therapists, respiratory therapists and dietitians.
