overview

Crestwood Center in Sacramento exemplifies the company’s commitment to providing mental health consumers the range of care needed to place them on the road to recovery. This MHRC focuses on consumer rehabilitation in the least restrictive environment possible. Consumers, regardless of their individual diagnoses, receive a personalized action plan upon arrival. These plans assign appropriate classes and activities to strengthen the skills consumers need to move to a less restrictive care setting, and eventually back to their own communities. Once consumers have begun their personalized plans, Crestwood Center provides continual encouragement and assessment to ensure that they have the greatest opportunities to succeed.

The facility also offers a wide variety of classes, from core recovery offerings to community living skills and substance abuse education. Consumers can engage in a variety of activities like arts and crafts, exercise, relaxation, and movie nights, and they are encouraged to participate in several community-based outings each month. Consistent community interaction helps our consumers hone their social skills and prepare for a lower level of care.

As consumers progress through their treatment, they can earn self-passes, allowing them to spend a few hours unaccompanied in the community. These passes allow consumers to enhance their community living skills and demonstrate their potential to thrive outside of the facility.

special features

All Crestwood Center Sacramento consumers are invited to participate in our pre-vocational program that places individuals in various positions around the facility as "trainees" to help them develop positive work habits. Based on their interests, consumers are welcome to contribute to housing, the business office, maintenance/gardening, dietary programs and recreational programs. Crestwood Center also enjoys a partnership with California State University, Sacramento that allows nursing students to gain real world experience during a semester-long psychiatric rotation at the facility.


accreditation

CARF

Crestwood Center at Sacramento is accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF), which requires a higher standard of care than the licensing standards in California. Crestwood believes this accreditation demonstrates our unwavering commitment to achieving and maintaining the highest level of care and rehabilitation.
