Understand the setting before packing

River City Recovery provides adult outpatient care, not an overnight residential setting. A residential packing list is therefore not a reliable guide for these programs. Available services include individual therapy, medication management, drug testing and monitoring, case management, family support, assessments, medical oversight, care coordination, and referrals.

Outpatient visits do not use residential packing lists
Bring only items confirmed for your specific visit

What a participant needs for a visit depends on the selected outpatient service and direct instructions. Ask admissions about personal belongings, documents, and medication information. Also ask whether a family member needs any specific information if family support will be discussed as part of care.
