What to Bring To Treatment at Magnolia Ranch Recovery
If you have decided to get help for your drug or alcohol problem, you are ready to take the first step in your recovery journey at Magnolia Ranch Recovery. After we have processed your admission and ensured your full knowledge of resident rights and confidentiality, you are only moments away — all that is left is packing your belongings!
Think of your stay at Magnolia Ranch Recovery to be akin to taking an active vacation to a serene horse ranch. The weather in middle Tennessee is seasonal, so bring clothing that would be appropriate for the time of year you will be attending our residences. Contact our admissions team for an exact assessment of the current weather patterns. As the ranch sits on an active horse farm, we recommend comfortable, durable clothing and footwear that you won’t mind dirtying in our stables!
