Questions Asked During Your Free Initial Phone Consultation

What To Bring To Rehab

Packing is an important part of your preparation for rehab. It requires an unexpected amount of planning because even though you don’t want to forget anything you may need, overpacking can be equally as problematic.

To help get you started, here’s a brief guide to packing for rehab.

Identification

You’ll need to be able to verify your identity once you get to rehab. For this reason, you should bring either a state ID, passport, or another valid form of identification.

Clothing

The amount of clothing you should bring depends on how long your program(s) will be. However, you will have the opportunity to do laundry when needed, so you don’t need quite as much clothing as you may think.

Other Necessities

A credit or debit card is recommended for things like copays and prescriptions. Some form of entertainment — like a book, some magazines, sudoku, etc. — to enjoy during your downtime is a good idea.

Common Questions

Unless special arrangements are made ahead of time, clients cannot bring or use their
laptops, smartphones, and other devices that connect to the internet while they are in
our programs. This is to minimize opportunities for clients to become distracted (or even
triggered) by things happening beyond our facilities.

Absolutely! There will be many opportunities for your loved ones to visit you while you’re
completing one of our programs. For details regarding visitation or to schedule a loved
one’s visit, you should speak with our clinical team.

The cost of our programs is variable, depending on what your health insurance provider
covers. The amount of coverage provided by your plan, whether or not there’s a copay,
and so on. Additionally, there’s a sliding scale available for qualifying clients. If you
intend to pay completely out-of-pocket, contact our admissions team for rates.
