Am currently here. THERE IS NO WAY THIS PLACE HAS 4.9 UNLESS THEY ARE DELETING THE BAD REVIEWS. CHOOSE A ANOTHER FACILITYEdit to add My spouse is receiving treatment here. This is more of a patient only facility. The doors lock at 7 pm and you are not allowed to come in until 7am. Understandably with the area and homeless population near the facility.There is a convenience corner but LIMITED cafeteria with short hours of operation. Plan accordingly IF you are approved to stay with the person receiving care.The PT OT and speech therapy have all been AMAZING. If you are by yourself it is a great option.I am changing the review to a 4.5 for my husband who received the care.I rated it a 1 star. To be fair adding whole over-all what they did and what they do 5 vs. my sleep and ability to care for myself AND him it stays a 1.

I am beyond grateful to everyone who is part of this hospital. From the cafeteria staff to the cleaning crew to the nurses and therapists I was cared for in this location for 11 days and I have never in my 27 years sad to say but super happy to say that Ive never been cared for and felt so loved by so many people They helped me walk and stand and even put lotion on my legs. I had scoliosis surgery and I was limited to so many things yet the nurses and physical therapists were there for me throughout the whole way I got there unable to stand with positivity and support they helped me so much and I left there walking on my own and being able to get off the bed on my own I thank you all for such great life experience. I will forever be grateful and wish happiness and love on your life in and out of your professional life. I thank Eli Shaee Mary Victoria Emily Samantha the girl from cafeteria with long beautiful black hair shes a sweetheart the woman who cleans and is so positive and loving shared chats with lots of people there and they all helped me stay strong as my body was in constant pain. I thank every single soul in that location I truly believe they have the purest most loving souls to do what they do and how they do it. May their lives be filled with happiness always. I thank you with my whole heart. You have changed my life in many ways. I am now walking more and able to shower on my own. Your love has helped me heal

My husband was recently in Banner Rehab on Willetta from August 5 to August 15. We were very impressed with many things about this facility. The room was sunny and inviting. The facility was spacious and well designed. The meals were an improvement after having been in St. Josephs for 18 days. A dietician came to his room every day asking for the next day meal orders.The best part of Banner Rehab on Willetta were the staff. From the gentleman to took our family on a tour of the facility - Tom who turned out to be the CEO to the nurses nurse practitioners LVNs and helpers - all were outstanding. Specifically Stephanie RN Tim PA Kelly Larry and many more. I regret no writing down more names because everyone was terrific.The physical therapist David and occupational therapist Anna were both outstanding personable and kind. The speech Therapists were excellent and sent my husband home with 8 pages of sentences with which to practice enunciation.We are very grateful for the care and therapy my husband received from Banner Acute Rehab on Willetta in Phoenix.

I was thoroughly impressed with this facility and its staff.

I highly recommend anyone looking for a clean safe efficiently -run acute inpatient facility to choose Banner Rehabilitation Facility Select Medical partnershipon 775 E Willetta Phx AZ 85006I progressed well under their care. They take the utmost precautions for safety. The facility is immaculate. The food is good however it is the staff that makes a big difference in the healing process. The majority of staff are personally cheerful really care about the patient and greeted me with wonderful smiles the majority of the time regardless of what is happening with other patients under their care. I didnt feel like I was a burden to them. Hats off to Dr Statt my attending physician and their CEOI always asked the staff if they enjoyed working there and their answers from everyone I asked was a resounding YES It showsThank you for your excellent care Regards PPS Phoenix

Strokes are scary for everyone and patients and families have so many questions about what the future holds. The month my mom spent at Banner Rehabilitation Hospital was incredible. The therapists staff physicians leadership--every single person we came in contact with was knowledgeable motivating encouraging and kind. She regained so many skills we had thought were gone forever. We cannot thank them all enough for restoring our mom back to us.

Frequently Asked Questions
Speech therapy is almost always recommended for autistic children since many people with autism have difficulty with social communication. Even if a child is very verbal and says a lot of words, they might need to work on communication skills like:
responding to questions
starting or ending conversation
changing conversation topics
using gestures like pointing
understanding other people's body language
Speech therapy is a big focus in early intervention for autistic children and is usually the starting place for recently diagnosed kids. There is a critical period in the brain for language development and so, it's really important to teach language and communication skills as early as possible, especially if there are any delays in that area. Your child will learn effective ways to communicate which will help them grow into more independent and confident individuals.
It might be obvious when a child struggles with speaking —they are very quiet, say only a few words, or don't speak at all.
Spot speech and language delays like a doctor here.
The goal of speech therapy is to help your child communicate effectively with other people across all environments. This may take the form of using gestures, simple signs, verbal speech, and Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC).
Some other common things speech therapists can help with:
Nonverbal skills, such as signs or gestures
Forming speech in a clearer way
Communicating thoughts and feelings clearly
Understanding and responding to questions
Discerning facial expressions and their corresponding emotions
Noticing and understanding body language
Feeding and swallowing
Stuttering
The occupational therapy process includes an OT evaluation before care starts. Here are the four steps your family can expect when starting occupational therapy:
Complete OT evaluation. An occupational therapist first identifies your child’s strengths and needs through a thorough OT evaluation, also known as an OT assessment or screening. You’ll answer questions about your child’s skills, and your child will most likely demonstrate their skills via hands-on activities with the therapist. Evaluations can last 30 minutes to a few hours.
Approve OT plan. The therapist develops a care plan with individualized goals and customized interventions based on your child’s needs. You can also share any specific goals or concerns before approving the OT plan.
Start therapy sessions. The therapist works directly with your child and your family, using various strategies and exercises to systematically improve areas of limitations and to build upon a child’s strengths. Some exercises your child might participate in are animal walks, obstacle courses, and therapy swing activities. Your family may learn strategies for supporting your child’s individualized needs at home, such as ways of supporting emotional regulation and sensory processing. The therapist may also recommend tools and techniques to use at home, in the community, or in the classroom to help your child succeed.
Monitor your child’s progress. Parents and caregivers can expect ongoing progress monitoring and communication to ensure the child is achieving their short and long-term goals.
Occupational therapy can also be provided virtually via telemedicine. Virtual therapy is a great option for families in rural areas who may not have access to in-person services, or for families who prefer to have therapy in their child’s home.
Virtual OT allows the opportunity for increased caregiver participation and understanding of a child’s strengths, areas of improvement, and generalization of skills in the child’s home environment. Virtual therapy also provides increased opportunities for caregiver and family education to support the child and the family based on each family’s needs.
Once you find a quality physical therapist you want to work with, here are a few things you need to know:
There will be an evaluation. First, you can expect an assessment to identify your child’s areas of strength and needs. A physical therapy evaluation usually lasts 30 minutes.
You’ll review and approve the care plan. The physical therapist will create a care plan, also known as a plan of care (POC), outlining the goals and strategies. They will review this with you and your care team before moving forward with therapy sessions.
Physical therapy sessions will be fun. PT with children is designed to be enjoyable. The therapist will use strategies and exercises based on your child’s needs. Exercises might involve playing on large stability balls, obstacle courses, movement equipment, stretches, and other hands-on activities.
Expect home exercises. Physical therapists commonly assign exercises to work on at home. Doing these exercises with your child outside therapy sessions can improve your child’s overall progress.
Yes! Most providers offer physical therapy in their offices or a clinical setting, but many are offering at-home options. Virtual options have become more popular in recent years. You might facilitate care with the guidance of the physical therapist.
Pediatric physical therapy is considered safe and should not hurt. Autistic children spend their time in PT moving and exploring their environment. If you are concerned about your child experiencing pain during certain exercises, especially if they may struggle to communicate and advocate for modifications, speak with their physical therapist about your concerns.
