## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

## Audiologist & SLP Directory Scraper — ASHA ProFind

Scrape [ASHA ProFind](https://www.asha.org/profind/), the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association's national directory of certified audiologists (CCC-A) and speech-language pathologists (CCC-SLP). Returns name, certification, specialty areas, practice location, address, and phone for every listed provider across the US.

***

### ASHA ProFind Scraper Features

- Covers the full national roster by default — all 50 states plus DC, Puerto Rico, and the other territories ASHA lists, not a single-state sample
- Filters by state/territory or by provider type (audiologist vs. speech-language pathologist) when you only need a slice
- Returns ASHA certification (CCC-A / CCC-SLP) and listed specialty areas per provider — useful for building targeted outreach lists, not just a flat name roll
- Fetches each provider's practice phone number and street address. That's an extra request per record, so turn it off for a faster, listing-only run
- Clean, structured JSON — one record per provider, consistent field names across the whole run

***

### Who Uses Audiologist & SLP Directory Data?

- **Hearing-aid and AAC device makers** — build a dealer/clinician contact list by state for a product launch
- **EHR and practice-management vendors** — find audiology and SLP practices to pitch, filtered by provider type
- **Staffing and recruiting firms** — source candidate leads straight from the credentialing body's own public roster
- **Teletherapy platforms** — identify SLPs by specialty area (e.g., pediatric feeding, voice disorders) for partner outreach
- **Market researchers** — measure provider density and specialty mix by state

***

### How the ASHA ProFind Scraper Works

1. Pick the states and/or provider types you want — or leave both empty to pull the whole directory.
2. The scraper walks every matching provider, returning name, certification, specialty areas, and location for each one.
3. When contact-detail fetching is on (the default), it also pulls each provider's public profile for phone number and street address, then folds that into the same record.
4. Set `maxItems` to cap the run, or leave it high to pull everything that matches your filters.

### Input

```json
{
  "states": ["California", "Texas"],
  "providerTypes": ["Audiologist"],
  "fetchContactDetails": true,
  "maxItems": 500
}
```

| Field                 | Type    | Default | Description |
|-----------------------|---------|---------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| `states`              | array   | `[]`    | Restrict to specific US states/territories. Empty = the full national directory. |
| `providerTypes`       | array   | `[]`    | Restrict to `Audiologist` and/or `Speech-Language Pathologist`. Empty = both. |
| `fetchContactDetails` | boolean | `true`  | Fetch each provider's phone number and street address. Turn off for a faster, listing-only run. |
| `maxItems`            | integer | `50`    | Maximum records to return. Set to `0` for no limit. |

A listing-only run (`fetchContactDetails: false`) over the whole country:

```json
{
  "states": [],
  "providerTypes": [],
  "fetchContactDetails": false,
  "maxItems": 0
}
```

| Field             | Type   | Description |
|-------------------|--------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| `full_name`       | string | Provider's full name as listed in ASHA ProFind |

| `phone`           | string | Practice phone number, when `fetchContactDetails` is on and the provider listed one |
| `profile_url`     | string | Canonical ASHA ProFind profile URL for this provider |

### FAQ

#### How do I scrape ASHA ProFind?

Run this actor with no input beyond the defaults and it pulls the entire national directory of certified audiologists and speech-language pathologists. Add a `states` or `providerTypes` filter if you only need a slice.

#### What data can I get from ASHA ProFind?

Name, ASHA certification (CCC-A/CCC-SLP), provider type, specialty areas, city/state/zip, and — when contact-detail fetching is on — practice street address and phone number.

#### Can I filter by state or provider type?

Yes. Pass `states` for one or more US states/territories, `providerTypes` for `Audiologist` and/or `Speech-Language Pathologist`, or both. Leave either empty to cover everything.

#### Do I need an account or API key for ASHA ProFind?

No. ASHA ProFind is a public directory. No login, no API key, nothing to request in advance.

#### Why is `street_address` sometimes missing?

Some providers choose to display only their city, state, and ZIP in the public directory rather than a full street address. The field is `null` in that case — there's no address to fetch, not a scraping gap.

### Why Use This Scraper?

- **Covers the whole roster by default** — every state and territory ASHA lists, not a sample you have to stitch together yourself
- **Richer than a license lookup** — certification, specialty areas, and practice contact details in one record, pulled straight from the credentialing body's own public roster rather than a third-party aggregator
- **Pay for what you need** — turn off contact-detail fetching for a quick listing pull, or leave it on for the full picture

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config.
