I have used this provider for more than 6 months

My concerns are many. I and I know others do not like to be singled out or spoken to as if we do not comprehend. People should be treated the same whether they are family or friend. This facility was recommended if there was another one I would take my child there. To many unprofessional, supposedly certified individuals. Companies should really know whom isneoeking for them and let them know the they represent the company even off the clock.
