Pregnant/Postpartum Women - EastvilleToday, there are drug and alcohol rehab centers that are designed to focus on specific drug addicted groups such as pregnant/postpartum women. These treatment facilities are specifically tailored to the needs of their clients and they address specific issues that are unique just to them. Rehabilitation programs for pregnant/postpartum women often provide individualized programs that incorporate a good amount of flexibility into their treatment protocol. This ensures that the client's specific needs are met while maintaining the highest level of medical attention available. Many life skills are also integrated into facilities developed for pregnant/postpartum women. The most successful pregnant/postpartum rehabilitation programs have integrated "household" chores (cleaning, cooking, etc.) into their curriculum so that taking care of their babies and small children goes more smoothly once they leave the rehab program.
