Outback works on a continuous flow basis with admissions and discharges happening regularly. This creates a positive peer culture and allows students to become mentors to "new-comers" in the group. Outback prefers to admit students Monday through Friday. Weekend admits can be arranged, but check with your Outback admissions counselor for details. Flights should arrive at the Salt Lake City Airport by 3:00 p.m. with a facility admission cut off time of 6:00 p.m.  All students arriving outside of those timeframes will be placed at the Safe House facility for the night and admission will occur the following morning. Please contact our admissions director if special arrangements need to be made.

Upon arrival at Outback, students receive their gear and clothing, are transported to the doctor's office for a short physical exam, and then taken to the field and introduced to the group.

All clothing and necessary gear will be issued to the students. Parents are asked to supply only the following:

• Prescription medication (at least a 1 month supply). All refills of prescriptions will be filled through our contracted pharmacy Omni Care Superior Pharmacy.  All prescription refills will be billed to your insurance provider and subject to plan limitations.
• Prescription glasses (no contacts if at all possible)
• Retainers with their cases
• Disposable cameras (in their original packaging)
