Pregnant/Postpartum Women - Ostrander

Today, there are drug and alcohol rehab centers that are designed to focus on specific drug addicted groups such as pregnant/postpartum women. These rehab 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 typically offer individualized programs that incorporate a good 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 incorporated into facilities developed for pregnant/postpartum women. The most successful pregnant/postpartum rehabilitation centers 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.
