Creston

Community rehabilitation in Creston and the Creston Valley. There is no office in Creston; our Kootenay team visits clients here.

Occupational therapists and a kinesiologist serve Creston. We see clients at home, in the community, at work and online.

Creston Valley Hospital serves the town, and we visit clients across the valley from Erickson and Lister to Wynndel, and east to Yahk on Highway 3. Work here centres on orchards and farming, the Columbia Brewery, forestry, and local health care and retail. The Lower Kootenay Band is next to town.

Clients are referred by WorkSafeBC, ICBC, Veterans Affairs Canada, long-term disability insurers, employers and lawyers. The goal is function and independence at home, in the community and, where possible, at work.

To arrange community rehabilitation in Creston, the client's case manager, adjuster, disability insurer, employer or lawyer sends a referral to referrals@creativetherapyconsultants.ca or calls 1-888-880-3222. We contact the client within 1 business day of the referral, and the client gets their clinician's direct phone number and email. Sessions take place at home, in the community, at work or online, and the nearest CTC office is in Cranbrook.
