Does Wells House - Gale House prescribe medication for opioid use?

They do not prescribe. If buprenorphine or methadone is part of what you need, say so on the call and ask who they refer to in Frederick.

Can I bring my own medication?

Bring the list and bring the containers, and expect a prescriber to go through both. Stopping a psychiatric medication abruptly can cause real harm, which is why this is never a decision to make alone. Keep your own prescriber in the loop rather than letting the handover happen by itself.

What do I need to pack for a residential program?

The paperwork, the medication in its labeled containers, and about a week of ordinary clothes. Medications normally have to arrive in the original labeled container, so a pill organizer can be refused at the door. Sort the keys, the mail and the animals before the day rather than on it.
