What To Bring to Blue Ridge Eating Disorder Care Center

Of course, if any necessary items are needed after admission, your family can bring them later or ship them (as many patients come from out-of-state).Please our admissions team should you have any questions about your teen prepared to come to our Pennsylvania adolescent eating disorder treatment center in Saylorsburg.

What Not to Bring to Blue Ridge Treatment for Adolescents

There are specific items that your teenager should NOT pack when she is preparing to enter our Saylorsburg campus. Our admissions coordinator will go over prior to admissions and answer any questions.



A luggage and belongings search is performed during the intake process. Any items brought will be sent home with parents or securely stored while in treatment. We hope you understand this for everyone’s safety and well-being while in eating disorder treatment.



While some items may be trivial for you, we ask that you be mindful that what may be innocent for one patient, it may be a trigger for another peer teen. We also have a small community of adolescent girls who are at different stages in their recovery and experience has taught us to leave these itmes at home.

Alcohol, illegal drugs, over-the-counter medications, or prescription drugs not prescribed to you
Weapons including knives, scissors, or sharp objects
Valuables: cash or expensive jewelry should be left at home– BRT will not be held responsible for any stolen or missing items.
Revealing or “provocative” clothing: low cut shirts, strapless tops, short shorts/skirts/dresses, or anything that may trigger other peers
Hoodie sweatshirts and hats.
Food items or drinks
Lighters, matches, candles, or incense
