Pregnant/Postpartum Women - Shelter Island Heights

Today, there are drug treatment programs that are designed to focus on specific drug addicted groups such as pregnant/postpartum women. These treatment programs are specifically tailored to the needs of their clients and they address specific issues that are unique just to them. Rehabilitation facilities for pregnant/postpartum women typically provide individualized programs that incorporate a good amount of flexibility into their treatment schedule. This ensures that the client's specific needs are addressed while maintaining close medical supervision. Many life skills are also integrated into programs designed for pregnant/postpartum women. The most effective pregnant/postpartum treatment centers 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.
