About the Campus

Our Skilled Nursing Facility is just minutes from the freeway, conveniently located by many shops and restaurants. As a Neuro-behavioral campus, we are less medically acute, providing great opportunities for clients. For example, Crestwood Wellness & Recovery Center has adopted the city park next to our building. Our clients actively pursue their gardening skills and creative beautification inspirations by maintaining and adding to the garden beds created on Earth Day 2009. The efforts have created a space for quiet and serenity as well. Weather permitting, staff often take clients to the park for group therapy, meditation, and yoga.
