Redding
Crestwood Wellness & Recovery Center offers a skilled, supportive, and self-empowering platform. This foundational recovery structure is inherent in all of our programming and provides meaningful life skills to the people we serve. The recovery milieu that we create provides an anchor for growth, and through our systems of care, we believe that individuals can meet their potential for recovery. Our interdisciplinary team of professionals utilizes various evidence-based models of mental health care to address the strengths and knowledge of our persons served, allowing for individual and collaborative treatment plans. Our guiding principles include facilitating recovery by using a responsive approach to each individual’s unique needs. This includes recognizing, respecting, and accommodating for differences—be it cultural, ethnic, religious, gender, socio-economic or sexual orientation. In addition, our staff participate in ongoing leadership and clinical/support staff training to develop, enhance, and support the diverse talents in our workforce.
Programs
Crestwood Wellness & Recovery Center
At our Crestwood Wellness and Recovery Center, we have Skilled Nursing Facilities (SNFs) and Special Treatment Programs (STPs) that provide care for individuals seeking to address their physical and emotional needs in a safe and secure setting. Our services include skilled nursing care for those who require monitoring and treatment for acute and chronic medical conditions. Additionally, our incredible medical team promotes physical wellness with standardized evidence-based health screenings. At our Redding campus, we emphasize individualized care and create custom care plans by consulting our comprehensive assessments, conservators, county mental health staff, and family to deliver the most effective treatment methods.
During the recovery process, persons served have a personal service coordinator that helps them navigate through the treatment process. Our personal service coordinators familiarize individuals with recovery services including around-the-clock skills training class that foster self-advocacy and self-reliance, daily group therapy sessions, cognitive therapies, Wellness Recovery Action Plan (WRAP), as well as nurse-led educational groups. These educational groups focus on illness and medications, self-care, and community living skills. As persons served move through the program toward discharge, we also encourage them to participate in our Dreamcatchers Empowerment Network Program (DEN). DEN is a pre-vocational training program that assists individuals in developing workplace skills for future employment opportunities.

Special Features
Gardening Activities
Crestwood Wellness & Recovery Center adopted the city park next to our building. Our persons served actively pursue gardening skills and creative beautification inspirations by maintaining and adding to the garden beds that Crestwood created on Earth Day 2009. These efforts have created a space for peace and serenity. Weather permitting, staff often take persons served to the park for group therapy, meditation, and yoga.
Soothing Therapies & Meditation
Our staff are mindful of creating a restorative environment that incorporates Aromatherapy on a regular basis. Aromatherapy practices have been found to decrease stress and rejuvenate. The olfactory stimulation can often trigger a fond memory that takes persons served to a more comforting place in their mind. At our Redding campus, Aromatherapy groups are ongoing to provide educational and therapeutic environrmental practices that often become a wellness tool for many of our persons served.
At Crestwood Wellness & Recovery Center, we also offer ongoing meditation and contemplation groups. These groups offer a gentle experience with non-judgmental instruction, practice, and processing, that can helps quiet the mind, making meditation a useful life skill to incorporate into one’s wellness plans.
Holisitc Chiropractic Medicine
After discovering that an unbalanced physiological system can negatively affect a psychological system, our campus enacted a holistic medicine approach to assist persons served in reducing symptoms of pain, stress, and nervousness. This new holisitc approach uses chiropractic treatment in addition to the existing treatment modalities that are already present in an individual's wellness plans. By adding this voluntary program, we have been able to leverage holistic medicine to offer enhanced treatment from a more comprehensive perspective, leading to transformational results and positive reception from our persons served.
We had a person served who utilized a wheelchair for many years, and after her first few adjustments, she stated, “I can now sit up much straighter and my back doesn’t hurt. I feel so much happier.” In addition to this, we have received staff reports about another person served who often mumbles and is hard to hear, now speaking much louder and with greater clarity after holisitc interventions. The holistic approach of using chiropractic medicine in addition to traditional mental health tools appears beneficial in treating persons served with a co-morbidity of physical and psychological symptoms.
Traditiional Restorative Care
Traditional restorative care is provided with licensed nursing staff on a one-to-one basis. Physically weakened, deconditioned, or post-surgical persons served benefit from this care. At Crestwood, our clinical staff provides traditional resortative care that helps persons served achieve personal physical health goals.
Biofeedback
Crestwood Wellness & Recovery Center is training persons served to use biofeedback techniques to promote relaxation, mindfulness, and emotional regulation that emphasize the body and mind connection. This method of training is unique and well received by both young and mature persons served alike. It is a specially designed interactive computer program called The Journey to Wild Divine. The program has finger sensors that monitor heart rate and skin conductance levels, which directly affect the activity on the computer program. The Journey to Wild Divine biofeedback program offers guided training on breathing, relaxation techniques, and meditation. It also offers an adventure gaming feature that allows the user to apply the power of their thoughts, emotions, and breathing to navigate the virtual world. Additionally, the visual effects on this program are beautiful and the music is calming. Together they produce an ideal environment for quieting the mind and relaxing the body.
