Going to rehab can seem daunting for many people, especially when the realization of your addiction unveils itself. Although this can seem like a complicated process, we’ve put together a few common questions and answers to help ease your mind and prepare you for the road ahead.
Prepare like you might for a week-long trip, below are some items to remember:
- ID and insurance card(s)
- A list of all your medications and dosages. Your current prescription medication must be in the original pharmacy bottle with its label intact. Any liquid medications must be new and sealed.
- A list of names, addresses and phone numbers of those you wish to have involved in your treatment (loved ones, healthcare professionals, 12 step sponsors, etc.).
- A week’s worth of clothing, including clothes that would be comfortable for exercise and a swimsuit for the beach. Laundry is available.
- Personal hygiene supplies, including things like sunscreen, contact solution, toothpaste and non-alcoholic mouthwash. Any liquid products must be in their original packaging, seal unbroken.
- A pre-paid Visa gift card for any missing essentials that you would like purchased for you at the store; this may be things like extra hygiene products, nicotine and prescriptions. If you are not able to bring a pre-loaded card, you can leave a debit/credit card or cash with staff. Your individual receipts will be kept safe for you with your cards/cash.
