Rare needs on a PRN basis in Ft. Worth, TX-Bilingual Diag and Audiologist

It's not often that we get positions in for an "on call" basis (PRN), but I am working with a school district in Fort Worth, TX who is asking me to help them find both an audiologist and a bilingual educational diagnostician. If anyone out there knows such a person in the Ft. Worth area, please pass along my contact info. Both positions will run through the end of this school year with a possiblity of some work over the summer.

The number to my desk is 770-325-0234 and my email address is millie.simpson@soliant.com.

Thank you, thank you!!!!

Tele-practice school jobs; would you qualify?

School districts, virtual schools, home schoolers, and home-bound student families across the country are re-evaluating how services are delivered to their children. One of the trends is by tele-practice, also called tele-health, for Speech and Occupational Therapy, Sign Language, Psychology, Teachers of the Deaf and Hard of Hearing and Teachers of the Visually Impaired. Some of these disciplines have been using this method of delivery for quite some time; others are new to this creative way of getting services to their special needs students.

We here at Soliant have a dedicated staff in our tele-health department, VocoVision. If you meet the qualifications, they will walk you through the steps it will take for you to be set up to work from your home computer. Some of the qualifications necessary are:

* A home computer that is no older than 5 years with hi-speed internet connection
* Experience working in a school environment
* A license to practice both in the state where you are based and in the state of the school/client requesting services
* The ability to work independently
* A dedicated space where you can converse with no distractions or interuptions
* Ability to communicate via FaceTime, Skype, etc.
* A comfort level with solving technical issues that may occur

Once your recruiter has determined that you have all of the above qualifications, they will send you to the VocoVision team for further screening both with our placement associates and our technical crew who will walk you through the steps and finalize your placement.

If you have any interest in exploring this "wave of the future", please give me a call, and I'll help you to determine your eligibility to become a part of this exciting new trend! You can call me at 770-325-0234 or drop me a note at millie.simpson@soliant.com

Sick day blog post...ugh...

Well, I've been trying to make it through the week with a nasty something-or-other that has elements of the flu (body aches, chills, bad cough), but don't think it was the flu. I am still sporting a nasty cough that hijacks too many conversations for me to try to do my usual phone calls. So, I'm home and thought I'd communicate a bit via my blog. If you think one of these might be of interest, you can call me 770-325-0234 or, better for today, email me at milllie.simpson@soliant.com.
