Patuxent River - Pregnant/Postpartum Women

Today, there are drug and alcohol rehab facilities that are made 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 facilities for pregnant/postpartum women often provide individualized programs that incorporate a good amount of flexibility into their treatment schedule. 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 facilities designed for pregnant/postpartum women. The most successful pregnant/postpartum rehab 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.
