"Wonderful Experience with Home Talk Worker"

About: Children & younger people's services / Early Intervention Speech and Language Therapy (Home talk) Nottinghamshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust / Nottingham Recovery College

(as a parent/guardian),

During a difficult period of this year with personal issues, a global pandemic and self isolation I became more aware that my son was struggling with his speech. I approached my Health Visitor for advice as my son's lack of speech began to cause behavioural problems. I was referred to the Home Talk service where I was put in touch with a lovely woman called Hazel Clark. I suffer with severe anxiety and can honestly say not at one point did I become anxious or distressed which is very uncommon for me! Hazel made me feel comfortable enough to speak about sensitive situations which I could not speak to other professionals about regarding my son's concerning behaviour. She helped me discover new ways for me to cope and manage my son's speech development and always gave me reassurance of all plans. But before long we both realised my son

 would need Speech Therapy in order to make further progress. I have wrote this review to show mine and my son's gratitude and appreciation for all Hazel's hardwork and the care she took of us. Truely a credit to the Home Talk Team.
