Q: Can I bring my own medications?
A: In order to maintain control over administration and availability of medications, we work with a local pharmacy to fill all prescriptions as ordered by the physician. Deliveries are received on a daily basis and the pharmacy will submit a claim to your insurance on your behalf and then bill you directly for any co-pays or deductibles that may apply.
Our administrators will gladly discuss any extenuating circumstances that may exist.

Q: What is required for admission?
A: A simple history and physical performed by a physician and a tuberculosis (TB) screening, both completed within 30 days of admission, is a regulatory requirment.
The physician will also need to supply us with prescriptions for all medications that need to be administered during your stay. We can provide the physician with the forms necesary.
