There are some amazing residential drug rehabs in Utah that are recognized for their excellence in patient care and addiction recovery treatment services. Making the choice to go to one of these outstanding programs is a big first step, and ensuring that you arrive with what you need for your stay is one way to show you are prepared to succeed.
Get the Information
The top drug rehab centers in Utah will have online websites that provide those with addictions, as well as their family and loved ones, with all the information needed for admissions. This will include a packing list that clearly outlines what you should bring and what you should not bring to the facility.
In addition, or if you don’t have online access, this information can be mailed to you. It is important to avoid bringing banned items to the facility as this can create a negative experienced as you are checking in. Most facilities will do a thorough check of your luggage and personal items at the point of admission to ensure that banned or prohibited items are not brought into the facility.
Clothing
For most of your drug rehab stay you should have clothing that is appropriate for comfortable wear and for being in group setting. Revealing or inappropriate clothing is not allowed for men or women as this is not only distracting but also creates difficulties for other clients as well as staff.
Many facilities offer outdoor activities, art therapy, yoga, meditation and sports activity on and off site, so be sure to bring clothing that is suitable for these things. For family events and community events dress clothing is typically required.
Personal Items
In most treatment facilities clients are not allowed computers or electronics, including cell phones, tablets or other types of devices. You can bring in books and literature as long as it is not sexually explicit or anything that promotes the use of alcohol or drugs.
Beauty products for men and women are acceptable, but they have to be free from any alcohol and some types of chemicals or ingredients. You can check labels or call the center for appropriate brands or types. Also, make sure you avoid bringing in any type of supplements or non-prescription medications.
