Pregnant/Postpartum Women - Richmond, California

Today, there are drug and alcohol rehab centers that are made to focus on specific drug addicted groups such as pregnant/postpartum women. These rehab facilities are specifically tailored to the needs of their clients and they address specific issues that are unique just to them. Rehab facilities for pregnant/postpartum women typically provide individualized programs that incorporate a fair amount of flexibility into their treatment schedule. This ensures that the client's specific needs are addressed while maintaining close medical supervision. Many life skills are also incorporated into facilities developed for pregnant/postpartum women. The most successful pregnant/postpartum rehab 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 the rehab program.
