We do not allow clients to keep their cell phones during detox or rehab. If you bring your cell phone, we will keep it locked up until you leave. 

We do allow our clients to make calls using our phone after they have been in residential treatment for 8 days. 

If you need to get a message to someone during that time, our staff can call and relay a message. 

Your family can call and check on you during that time if you have filled out a release of information for them.

Clients can write and receive letters right away.
