Grady - Pregnant/Postpartum Women

Today, there are drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs that are made to focus on specific drug addicted groups such as pregnant/postpartum women. These rehab centers are specifically tailored to the needs of their clients and they address specific issues that are unique just to them. Treatment centers for pregnant/postpartum women often provide individualized programs that incorporate a great amount of flexibility into their treatment schedule. This ensures that the client's specific needs are met while maintaining close medical supervision. Many life skills are also incorporated into facilities developed for pregnant/postpartum women. The most effective pregnant/postpartum treatment programs have included "household" chores (cleaning, cooking, etc.) into their curriculum so that taking care of their babies and small children goes more smoothly once they leave treatment.
