Organize health and medication information

It can be useful to prepare an accurate list of current medications and the professionals involved in ongoing care. Include questions about medication management, medical oversight, or care coordination if those services matter to you. Admissions can explain what information should be brought. Do not stop or change prescribed medication based only on a general packing guide.
- Accurate health details can support the assessment process
- Keep taking prescribed medication unless your prescriber changes it
Clinical and medical assessments are among River City Recovery’s services. A clear summary of current concerns, recent substance use, prior treatment, and treatment goals may support the conversation. If records or releases are needed, confirm that with admissions first. This avoids carrying unnecessary personal documents or assuming that a particular record is required.
Plan for outpatient participation, not a residential stay
River City Recovery offers a Partial Hospitalization Program, Intensive Outpatient Program, Evening IOP, and outpatient therapy. These are outpatient services, so participants should not pack as if moving into a residential facility. Housing and transportation remain practical considerations. Ask about expected attendance and what personal items are appropriate during program hours.
- Pack for outpatient care, not an overnight stay
- Reconfirm the Columbus, GA Evening IOP schedule
Evening IOP meets on Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday from 6:15 to 9:15 PM, although the schedule should be reconfirmed. Consider travel time from Lilburn, meals, work, family duties, and the return trip. Case management, family support, care coordination, and referrals may help address participation needs within the available services.
