In addition to allowing you to fulfill your
court-mandated obligations, the intent of Wellness Driver Intervention Program
is to help you understand the role that alcohol and other mood altering chemical
substances play in your life and the issues with drinking and driving. We hope
this will help you take the first steps toward building a positive lifestyle.
To help you get the most out of this weekend, we ask
that you follow these guidelines. Please give us a call if you have any
questions:
- Do not use alcohol or illegal drugs for
at least 72 hours prior to being admitted to the program.
- Cell phones and laptops are permitted but
must be kept in your room at all times.
- Bring your own toiletries and clothes
for three (3) days. Towels, etc. will be provided by the hotel.
- Any alcohol-based toiletries will be
examined and may be held by the staff and returned to you at the end of the
program. Be aware that your luggage will be searched during the Thursday
evening intake process.
- Prescription medication must be in
its original container and the label must be clearly legible. Bring only
enough medication to last for the 72 hour weekend program.
- No mood altering substances are permitted
unless they have been prescribed by a physician and are approved by our
staff nurse.
- You may bring snacks and soft drinks. There
are vending machines where you may buy snacks.
- Neither Wellness DIP nor the hotel will be
responsible for cars in the parking lot or their contents. If you must keep
your car at the program site, be sure to remove any valuables.
- The Ohio Department of Alcohol and Drug
Services (ODADAS) require that you complete 72 consecutive hours of driver
intervention education in order to meet your requirements. Therefore, if
you must leave early before completing our program, you will be required to
return and complete a new 72-hour class in its entirety. You will not be
refunded your money for the class that you did not complete and you will be
responsible for the additional cost of completing another program.
