Ready For Recovery?
Here’s What To Bring

At The Immersion Program we want to make sure our guests feel as prepared as possible before taking the first step on the road to recovery. We understand that you likely have quite a few questions concerning the specifics of the process. Packing for treatment might seem like a particularly overwhelming piece of the puzzle. What should you bring along? What should you leave at home? What happens if you forget something important?

In order to take the guesswork out of the process, we have developed a packing checklist. If you have any additional questions you are welcome to reach out to one of our Treatment Advisors at any point in time.
