The Speech & Career Center has been a true blessing to our family. Over the past year, our speech…read morepathologist, Brionna Pickens, has worked with my 5-year-old son, who has a severe articulation disorder. She has been nothing short of amazing! Upon her recommendation, we have increased my son's therapy sessions to twice a week and have seen GREAT progress over the past couple of months. At our recent IEP re-evaluation with our local school district, they commended the outstanding progress my son has made over the past year with his speech, which is attributed to Brionna's AMAZING work and DEDICATION with him! She incorporates games and toys into the sessions to make speech fun, which also helps to refocus my son to the task at hand, when needed. She is very caring to all her "friends" and invested in them meeting and exceeding their language goals. We HIGHLY recommend the Speech & Career Center for any speech issues!

My 4 year old son who was transitioned from Help Me Grow into a public preschool has been attending…read morespeech and occupational therapies at Specialized Speech Technology to help with his development. We really like this clinic compared to others we've been to in the past. The location is very accessible and there's a big waiting room enough for adults to sit and relax while waiting for their child/children. We have been to different clinics where waiting room is either way too small or too congested with kids toys laying around the floor. Specialized Speech instead provides 2 massage chairs besides a stationary touch screen busy board for the siblings who wait in the waiting room. I think it's a very thoughtful and simple ways of providing convenience for both kids/siblings and parents without crowding the waiting room with a bunch of toys that could be hazardous sometimes. Classes are clean, well equipped and the staff are excellent! Jenni is very prompt and accommodating when it comes to scheduling and the therapists really work hard to cater to your kids needs'. My son has been showing great progress and we will continue to spread the good words about this place. Thank you SST!

NEVER A CALL BACK!!!! Monthly billing is ALWAYS messed up. We found our loved one stuck on the floor between her bed and the wall with her door shut!!!!! That was the final straw. We moved her out and she only lasted a few months!!!! Tons of other neglects, too many to list!!!!!! I litterally went in and paid her balance IN FULL and got a PAID IN FULL receipt and they STILL tried to deduct from our account TWICE!!!!!!!! Please Please do not put a loved one in this facility!!!!

This isn't my fist time visiting Smith's Mill. Around 3.5 years ago my grandmother was in the…read morememory care unit for a short stay after a fall. The facility and staff in the mc unit were great back to my grandmother even though she was nonverbal due to Alzheimer's. My interactions and time at the facility were brief but they stood out because of those positive interactions. My 2nd mom who I've been taking care for the last several years is currently a resident at Smith's Mill for rehab. Unfortunately her dementia has progressed so I wasn't sure what to expect from her once she was transferred from the hospital. She's slowly perking up except for when Ashley Everson stops by her room each morning to check on her. She's much more talkative with Ashley and more like herself. That alone was enough for me to leave a review. As former fire/ems, I've seen all kinds of facilities and staff so I came in to sign paperwork and ready to ask a hundred questions. I left without asking any of them because Ashley covered everything I was going to ask and went over things I hadn't thought to ask or even thought about. It's rare to find a facility that is as nice as they appear on the outside. It's even more rare to meet someone like Ashley that genuinely cares about not just the residents but making sure the family members are informed and kept in the loop. When visiting my mom, I saw Ashley pass by the room and stopped her to ask the various units and then asked about meds because my mom said she hadn't been given any pain meds. I took that with a grain of salt because dementia. Ashley could have said she would send the nurse in to talk to me about meds but instead, she talked to the nurse and let me know when the last dose was given and how long before my mom could receive another dose. In that same visit, I was greeted by people left and right while walking to my mom's room. I brought her dinner for her birthday and she was just finishing it when Myshawn came in with dinner and wished my mom a happy birthday. She was slightly confused so he showed her the meal order with her info on it and the happy birthday at the top. Asked how her birthday was and if she enjoyed her dinner then said he had a piece of cake for her. She was all smiles during that interaction with him. Those moments where she's smiling ear to ear while in rehab are fleeting so it means a lot when that happens. I've told a number of friends that have aging family members about my experience over the years any time my mom goes to an SNF so they have options when needed or when they start the process of moving a family member who needs more care. I've since told all but a few of them about Smith's Mill and if they decide to check it out, ask for Ashley because she is not only a font of knowledge when it comes to elder care but she is genuine when it comes to caring about the residents. That and the food has looked delicious every time I've been to visit during meal time. Honestly a little envious of my mom on that front.

I would not recommend this school to anyone. Simply because it is a two week program and I had 4…read moredifferent instructors within that time that all had different methods of teaching, which can be difficult if you are new in the healthcare field. They do not work with you at all with financing and DEMAND every bit of money you owe before they will even let you finish the program. Not to mention how unprofessional they are when they are asking you for your money. Their communication skills also need some work as well. Had I known this school was going to be this way, I definitely would have gone elsewhere.

I took the STNA class here last year during the evening. The lobby/classrooms need some updating,…read moreas do the mannequins & equipment you practice with. The instructors were really great and knew what they were talking about. The price is about the same as the other STNA courses around here. You can bring your own scrubs instead of buying theirs, as long as they are solid dark blue. The only thing that really needed changed was the way the curriculum was set up - instead of passing out a syllabus that told you what would be happening on which day, the instructors sort of just told you the day before what you should have read for tomorrow. That was kind of annoying, especially most people in the evening class are also working full-time during the day. It also created some confusion when one instructor told us one chapter to prepare for the next day but then the next day, the other instructor said we were supposed to go over & be tested on a different chapter. Other than that, I had a great experience and feel well-prepared.
