Truth and honesty go a long way when recruiting nurses. The recruiters lead you on to believe That they have.Cases for you when they do not. They lie to you and give you a boiler plate response And blame it on the client instead of taking responsibility. And just being honest and say that the company doesnt want you.They are very deceitful in their hiring practices. And are only in it to fill avoid.Of hours hours needed for the client watch ou

I am a nurse who has worked with MGA on several different cases and I have a had wonderful experiences here With the office staff as well as staff out in homes Nurses are given excellent training and have great support while out in homes. The best part is that it is so rewarding to work with kiddos and their families Watching them grow and gain health and strength is beautiful If youre looking to work for a great company or if youre looking for great homecare for your little one Id recommend MGA.

Ive been working with MGA as a parent CNA for almost 2 years now. This company is fabulous at caring for their employees and the clients they serve. They make their employees feel like they are part of a big family. Ive worked for other home health agencies and have never experienced the professionalism thoroughness and respect that Ive found with MGA. Charting is always working smoothly and support staff are truly available day or night to answer any questions that come up. They are the BEST company to work for as a parent CNA or home health RN.

He goes above and beyond to ensure I have everything I need to do my job correctly. The nurses are also super professional and supportive. We get the continuation training we need to ensure we are doing the job as expected. I really appreciate all the benefits this company has giving me. This company is super professional and has an excellent work environment.

We moved to Colorado from Florida. It was so stressful but everyone at MGA made it so much easier. Everyone there is super nice and answer any questions I have promptly. I would highly recommend anyone to obtain any type of services thru them. I have become my daughters CNA thru them and they also are helping me with getting therapy services thru them. Its a win-win situation. I dont have to hunt around to find services its all at MGA

My family has been receiving services from MGA home health care for 7 years for my son with special needs. It is obvious that your childs Care and general well being are at the forefront of this companys priorities. They will respond with any questions or concerns you may have with proficiency and the utmost professionalism. I could not be happier being a part of the MGA family.

My family has used MGA for about 5 years. They provide excellent services. All of the staff that Ive met are respectful and considerate to all of our needs. The RN conducts thorough health evaluations on my boys. To include encouraging extra curricular activities such as Scouts or sports. They seem to be just as interested in my families emotional health as they are in the physical health. This is an excellent company to work with. If youre in need of any of their services make it a point to at least check them out. You wont be disappointed.

MGA is an amazing company to work for. For me personally this company changed my life by providing an opportunity to financially support my family all the while allowing me to provide quality care for my disabled child. My son has a dynamic team that truly care about him as a whole not just a list of diagnosies. If youre looking for a place that is compassionate educated and follow proper protocol with tough medical circumstances....LOOK NO FURTHER.

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.
