Medication & Staffing
Ohio's emergency recovery housing rules create new and sometimes complicated requirements involving medications, staff responsibilities, training, and when staff must be physically present in a recovery residence.
This section breaks those requirements down into practical resources to help providers understand what the emergency rules currently require, where operational concerns may arise, and which issues still need clarification from DBH.
These resources reflect the emergency rules currently in effect and will be updated as DBH's permanent rulemaking process develops.
Medication Management & MAT/MOUD
Understand the current DBH emergency-rule requirements affecting medication storage, self-administration, medication records, staff monitoring, and MAT/MOUD in recovery residences.
Staffing, Coverage & Training
Understand the emergency-rule requirements affecting staff qualifications, required training, 24/7 availability, onsite coverage, and situations that may trigger additional staffing responsibilities.
