Pregnant/Postpartum Women - Amory

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