What Should I Pack For Treatment At ORC?

We want to make your stay at Ohio Recovery Center as comfortable but also as convenient for you as possible. Although you will need to bring some personal items with you, such as clothing, we aim to help shorten your packing list.   

We provide laundry services during detox and washers and dryers, plus laundry care products, in residential cabins for client use. We hope you’ll be planning on participating in our wide range of wellness activities, which includes sports, hiking, and other outdoor activities, so you may want to bring sturdy tennis shoes. 

What To Pack

Here is a list of items we recommend packing for your stay at ORC.

• enough comfortable clothing for one week, including weather-appropriate wear for outdoor activities and activewear for studio fitness classes, sports, or other recreational activities
• sturdy tennis shoes
• your health insurance cards and a form of identification, such as a driver’s license
• current prescription medications
• contact information for loved ones or others you’d like to be involved in your treatment (e.g., family members, a healthcare provider, etc.)

You are also allowed to bring personal care items that are sealed and clearly labeled and don’t contain alcohol among the first three ingredients.

Some people also choose to bring books or other reading materials with them; however, we also provide a wide variety of books here at ORC that you are free to borrow.

What Not To Pack

Items that clients are prohibited from bringing to ORC include the following.

• food
• blankets and pillows
• open personal care products
• personal care products that contain alcohol among the first three ingredients
• aerosol products
• powdered products
• cameras
