  Hi! I just wanted to say that I've had great experience with the therapy team here at South Mountain Post Acute. When I first came here I could not speak but my wonderful Speech Therapist, Nicole, has helped me relearn to speak, read, and write. Brent, Eli my Physical Therapists have helped me learn to walk and run again! They are so wonderful! Zak, my Occupational Therapist has been an advocate for me and helped me become more independent. But food here is terrible!
