Pregnant/Postpartum Women - Jane Lew, West Virginia

Today, there are drug rehab facilities that are designed to focus on specific drug addicted groups such as pregnant/postpartum women. These treatment facilities cater to the needs of their clients and they address specific issues that are unique just to them. Rehab centers for pregnant/postpartum women often provide individualized programs that incorporate a fair 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 and coping skills are also integrated into programs designed for pregnant/postpartum women. The most successful pregnant/postpartum rehabilitation 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 the rehab program.
