Pingree - Pregnant/Postpartum Women

Today, there are drug rehab facilities 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. Rehab programs for pregnant/postpartum women typically offer individualized programs that incorporate a great amount of flexibility into their treatment schedule. This ensures that the client's specific needs are addressed while maintaining the highest level of medical attention available. Many life skills and coping skills are also integrated into programs developed for pregnant/postpartum women. The most effective pregnant/postpartum rehab 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.
