Intensive Outpatient Programs medication management

Does anyone have a medication management policy/procedure for addressing patient's clinical needs (i.e. can't meet need by med administration before or after program hours) in recurring encounters/visits in behavioral health/intensive outpatient programs for children and adolescents? Do you permit use of patient's own medications (POM)? If yes, how do you have the approved POM medication order carry across the multiple encounters? I'm in an Epic organization. Thank you in advance.
