Pregnant/Postpartum Women - Rippon

Today, there are drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs that are made to focus on specific groups such as pregnant/postpartum women. These rehab facilities cater to the needs of their clients and they address specific issues that are unique just to them. Rehab programs for pregnant/postpartum women often provide individualized programs that incorporate a great amount of flexibility into their treatment protocol. This ensures that the client's specific needs are met while maintaining the highest level of medical attention available. Many life skills are also incorporated into facilities developed for pregnant/postpartum women. The most successful pregnant/postpartum treatment 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.
