Janell Miller, MS, CCC-SLP

Team Rehab Center - Neuro & Pediatrics

When Janell’s patient, a former firefighter, couldn’t return to the profession he loved due to a severe injury, Janell went into action. She contacted his fire chief and developed a plan to utilize her patient’s charisma and public relations skills as a firefighter to provide safety awareness and public education for the community. Janell’s thoughtful gesture motivated her patient to find a new purpose, improving his life and the lives of those he’ll educate in the future.
