Clear Haven Center and Terry Orsten Shut down Rehab center and dumped patients at the airport. Chertsey, Quebec
My son and the rest of the patients at the Clear Haven Center rehab facility were told in the early morning hours of 1/7/ 2010 to pack their bags as they were all being taken to the Montreal airport in 1 1/2 hours. Apparently the facility and its owner, Terry Orsten, decided to close the building and didn't feel it was necessary to give anyone time to make other arrangements. Former patients, some with no money or passports, all with no current airline reservations were left there to fend for themselves.
Obviously this facility and its owner were motivated only by money and not the welfare of its patients. That morning the phones went dead and email addresses were no longer working. There is no way to contact the responsible parties and no way to seek reimbursement for the monies taken without services being provided.
