Kent - Pregnant/Postpartum Women

Today, there are drug and alcohol rehab centers that are made to focus on specific 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. Treatment centers for pregnant/postpartum women commonly provide individualized programs that incorporate a great amount of flexibility into their treatment protocol. This ensures that the client's specific needs are addressed while maintaining close medical supervision. Many life skills are also incorporated into programs designed for pregnant/postpartum women. The most successful pregnant/postpartum treatment facilities 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.
