By working with METROstaffing, we take care of everything and immediately begin to reduce your costs at the outset of our relationship.

Your facility will no longer bear the concerns and overhead for items such as pensions, disability insurance, healthcare, and administrative costs. Our experience shows an average savings of 8–10%, in payroll alone for each full-time employee.

We provide maternity, medical leave, and FMLA coverage for all of your related service needs: Speech, OT, PT, Psych & Special Ed Teachers.

We provide therapists for part and full time and can also cover both short and long term placements. We also offer Tele-Therapy services that can be used as a bridge until a ‘live’ therapist is procured; to keep students in IEP compliance and prohibit litigation possibilities.

Building A Better Business

We have developed a highly successful model that enables facilities and therapists to work together in ways that benefit both parties. Granting job satisfaction for the therapist translates into the longevity of your facility.

Dezha was born and raised in Detroit and places like Belle Isle were the norm on the weekends (when the weather was nice). She attended and graduate from MLK High School (#GoCrusaders) and she went on to attend college at Michigan State University where she honed in her skills to work with and serve people. Dezha studied Human Development and graduated with her Bachelor of Science Degree in Human Development and Family Studies. Dezha enjoys being outside and enjoying nature. Dezha is very determined and ambitious about being an agent of positive change.

According to the company, “Challenge Detroit cultivates diverse, innovative, community-minded leaders from the city and across the country, fostering their talents to support local initiatives that move Detroit forward. While they spend four days a week accelerating their professional careers with our Host Companies, each Friday Fellows take a day out of the office to bring social impact challenge projects to life in collaboration with our local nonprofit partners. They work in multi-disciplinary teams, bringing their vision, creative muscles, and entrepreneurial spirits to address some of Detroit’s greatest challenges and opportunities. We believe that to move our city forward, positive change starts with an individual and is ignited by a community of leaders who bring innovative perspectives to their work, and most importantly, the nonprofits already making an impact within our Detroit communities.”

Unleashing the Superpower of Words: The Importance of Reading and Speech Development with MetroEHS Pediatric Therapy

Greetings, heroes of child development! At MetroEHS Pediatric Therapy, we believe every child has a SUPER spark waiting to shine, and there’s no greater way to ignite that spark than encouraging a love of reading. Like a trusty cape, developing reading skills empowers children to soar through life with confidence, connection, and success. Let’s dive into why nurturing these abilities is a game-changer for your little hero’s growth, all while embracing the compassionate, play-based approach that defines MetroEHS!

The Superpower of Reading: Building a Foundation for Success

Reading is more than just decoding words on a page—it’s a superpower that unlocks imagination, knowledge, and communication. For young children, reading acts as a catalyst for cognitive and emotional growth, especially during the critical early years when the brain’s neuroplasticity is at its peak. According to our MetroEHS mission, early intervention is key to leveraging this neuroplasticity, helping kids develop essential skills like speech, comprehension, and social interaction.

When children engage with stories, they’re not just following along—they’re building vocabulary, learning sentence structure, and developing critical thinking. Picture your little one giggling at a silly rhyme or pointing excitedly at a colorful picture book. These moments are more than just fun; they’re wiring their brains for language mastery! Reading exposes children to new words and concepts, fostering a love for learning that sets them up for success in the classroom and beyond.

Speech Development: Giving Voice to Their Inner Hero

Speech development is the megaphone that amplifies a child’s thoughts, feelings, and ideas. At MetroEHS, we know that clear communication is vital for connection and engagement, two pillars of life which enhance quality of life. Through play-based therapy, our therapists create a joyful environment where children feel safe to express themselves, whether through words, sounds, or even playful gestures.

Speech isn’t just about pronouncing words correctly—it’s about building confidence and social skills. When children struggle with speech delays, it can impact their ability to connect with peers or express their needs. That’s where MetroEHS swoops in with intensive, evidence-based interventions. By focusing on consistent, tailored support (think five times a week for maximum impact!), we help children overcome challenges and unlock their ability to communicate effectively.

Reading Fuels Speech Development

Reading and speech development are like two sidekicks working together to save the day. When children listen to stories or read aloud, they practice articulation, rhythm, and intonation. Storytime becomes a playground for language, where kids mimic sounds, learn new phrases, and build the confidence to share their own stories. Our play-based approach at MetroEHS harnesses this magic, using activities like storytelling and role-playing to make speech practice feel like an adventure.

For example, a child might act out a scene from their favorite book, practicing words like “roar” or “zoom” with a therapist’s guidance. These playful interactions not only improve speech clarity but also boost emotional well-being by creating a safe space for self-expression. Plus, reading together with parents or caregivers strengthens family bonds, aligning with our collaborative care model to empower families for long-term success.

Here’s the superhero secret: timing is everything.

The earlier we nurture reading and speech development, the greater the impact. MetroEHS emphasizes intensive early intervention because young brains are wired to learn and adapt. Parents swoop in heroically and read to their little superheroes daily. Therapists address any speech delays or reading challenges, mitigate developmental delays and set children on a path to achieve their full potential. Think of it as giving your child a head-start in their heroic journey!
