Under Alecia's guidance, our six-year-old daughter has made remarkable progress in her reading and…read morecomprehension skills. She can read multi-syllable words more confidently than ever before. Her reading abilities have improved to the point where she is reading street and business signs, a task she showed no interest in during her kindergarten year. Each tutoring session with Alecia is a unique experience tailored to our daughter's needs. Given her struggles with emotional regulation and ADHD, sessions have taken place in unconventional settings such as the floor, under tables, or on whiteboards. Alecia's adaptability and understanding of our daughter's needs in the moment are truly commendable. Navigating the world of language is challenging, and so is advocating for a child's needs in and out of the classroom. Alecia takes the time to explain why our daughter struggles with reading, to name one thing, and also how the activities she is working on will help. Alecia also provides suggestions on interventions that may help in the classroom that follow along with our daughter's IEP. Alecia's communication skills are exceptional. She is always responsive and takes great care to ensure we, as parents, understand the care plan. Her ability to explain complex issues in a clear and concise manner is reassuring. If you are looking to add an experienced, holistic Speech Therapist to your care team, do not pass up Alecia with Thrive Therapy.

ZERO STARS - THIS PLACE IS A DEATH CAMP. DO NOT SEND YOUR LOVED ONE HERE…read more If I could give Community North Rehabilitation Center zero stars--or better yet, negative stars--I absolutely would. This facility nearly killed my mother, and I want to make sure no one else goes through the nightmare we did. My mom arrived at Community North Rehab after suffering a stroke. She had some mild speech impairment and early-stage dementia, but she was mentally sharp, alert, and active. She also had a stent between her kidney and bladder. Despite her condition, she was prematurely discharged from the hospital, under the all-too-common excuse of "testing will be done outpatient"--which really just means "get them out, we're done here," even if they're still on the brink of a medical crisis. From the moment she entered this facility, she declined rapidly. She stopped eating, became lethargic, and couldn't even complete her therapy sessions. Staff blamed "severe dementia," which was a lie. Before coming here, she was engaged, talkative, and functioning far above the level they claimed. The reason she couldn't participate in therapy? She was constantly needing to use the bathroom--a huge red flag they brushed off as nothing. I raised hell. I demanded answers. I asked to speak to the doctor overseeing her care, who coldly told me there was no reason to send her back to the ER. I asked him, "So, blood in the urine and needing to use the bathroom ten times in a half hour is normal?" And he said yes--as if that was something any human being should accept. They insisted she was "fine" and that this was normal for someone with a stent and told us to take her home for outpatient testing. So I did. Within one day of being home, she was practically unresponsive. She had explosive diarrhea, slept the entire day, and was only awake for about 45 minutes. I told my husband, "We have to get her to the ER--now." We took her to a different hospital, and within hours, they diagnosed her with C. diff--a dangerous, highly contagious infection that she most likely contracted either at Community North Hospital or at the Rehab Center. And what did the rehab staff do when she complained about needing to constantly use the bathroom? Nothing. They ignored her. I was there--I heard her begging to be excused from physical therapy because she had to go to the bathroom. And the staff still insisted she finish her tasks. Meanwhile, I kept repeating, "She is not doing well!" and was met with blank stares. I have to call out Robin, her case manager, by name. She was apathetic, stubborn, and completely dismissive of my concerns. Every time I raised a red flag, she gaslit me--saying there was "nothing they could do." I cried. I sobbed. I begged for help. Robin remained completely unmoved. Cold. Detached. As if my mother's suffering meant nothing. Now, my mother is fighting for her life in another hospital. And I can't help but believe that if Community North Rehab had listened--had actually cared--she might not be in this position. This place is a death camp. And the most twisted part? When I first arrived, I saw their signs and banners proudly announcing they were voted "Best Rehabilitation Center." I was fooled. Duped. Don't let the polished signage and smiling faces fool you--they are not what they appear. Please, for the love of your family--do not bring your loved one here.

We were only at Kids Innovative Developmental Services for a little over a year, but I have nothing…read morebut great things to say about the people who work here and the services we received. My kid worked with Christine, the speech-language pathologist, on a stutter that developed when he was in late elementary school. By the time he was in middle school, it was something he wanted to seek help with, so we reached out to Kids Innovative. I was a little concerned that they might not take my kid because he was so much older than the kids in the pictures on their website! And yes, it's true that Kids Innovative seems to skew toward younger kids -- we saw a lot of preschool- and elementary-aged kids during our visits. My kid was usually the oldest in the waiting room. But I think it's because speech and occupational impairments tend to present themselves at a younger age. Nevertheless, they DO take older kids, and bonus: they DO take many kinds of insurance! Very few speech therapy places take insurance, so it was a huge relief to find this place. A year of working with Christine helped my kid tremendously. She was patient, kind and always available to answer questions, and very flexible with her schedule. She would give us "homework" to work on or ideas to think about, which I appreciated. Eventually, my kid aged out of Kids Innovative, and Christine gave us a recommendation for a more specialized therapist who works with older kids. So we've transitioned to a new therapist, but I'll always be thankful for the help we got at Kids Innovative.

This individual was transporting an 85+ year old person with dementia who uses an walker to get around to a medical appointment when the tire went flat and they rolled into the facilities lot. I have never been more disappointed in the human services profession than I was today. Not one person who approached the car asked if they could help, or if the elderly individual in the car was in any distress due to the heat. They wanted the car to moved so it would not interfere with the line up for the end of their day. When the driver suggested they move the car slowly to another spot in the parking lot they were told no. The tow truck arrived within 20 minutes of the call and no interruption of their services occurred. I arrived a quickly as I could from 20 miles away to load the elderly individual into my car to get her out of the heat. The treatment received by the staff was deplorable. You would think that facility staff who worked with folks needing ABA therapy would know how to be flexible to interruption and changes in routine. More importantly, how to treat people with the same kind of kindness they would like to be treated.

The history of Easter Seals Crossroads in Indiana starts in 1936. Mrs. William Gavin started a club…read morewith 12 people with disabilities with a primary goal of socialization. Joined by Mrs. P.R. Mallory, they would expand into creating profitable handicrafts and in 1939 the group formally organized under the Indiana Society for Crippled Children. I'll admit it. The word crippled makes me cringe. A year later, the group affiliated with national Easter Seals and acquired an office at 30th and New Jersey. They've had various offices, however, they've been settled in at 4740 Kingsway Drive (think 47th & Keystone) since 1990. Today, Easter Seals is CARF accredited (This is a big deal) and offers physical, occupational, and speech therapies for children and adolescents along with early intervention programs, augmentative communication, adult day services, employment and transition services, veteran services, home modification services, assistive technology services, and deaf services. They offer a lot. For the last three years, I've served as a jury member for Easterseals Southern California's Disability Film Challenge. This has, in turn, increased my awareness of the local organization and the marvelous work they do. Of course, getting to know Yelper Katy E. (Hi Katy!) has also helped. As an organization, I love that Easter Seals participates in Project Search, an opportunity for young adults with disabilities to get some experience in a work setting. It's kind of like an internship and it's a wonderful program. Here in Indy, Easter Seals has offices on Kingsway Drive, Thompson Road on the Southside, and Crossroads Industrial Services on the Eastside. As another review has indicated, Easter Seals is also known for letting organizations use its big 5th floor meeting room. I work for the State of Indiana and even we've used it. The offices here are well kept. The building is obviously accessible. The people who work here are passionate about what they do - trust me, you don't work at a non-profit planning to get rich. You get paid fairly (and Easter Seals is good about this), but this is something you do because you actually care. For folks with disabilities, Easter Seals Crossroads is definitely one of Indy's hidden gems and best non-profits. They do remarkable work that leads to greater independence and empowerment and life opportunities. I'm all about that!

It's located in the office park off of Keystone and 46th and houses a lot of different companies. The building is kept very clean! But not in that sterile freaky way.

Everything is clean, and we have never had issues with the internet connection for presentations. I also appreciate that it is a spacious meeting room with a lot of tables and chairs in the back. No one likes to be piled on top of each Other during long meetings. Thanks for the hospitality Easter seals!
