Selby - Pregnant/Postpartum Women

Today, there are drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs that are created 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 facilities for pregnant/postpartum women commonly offer individualized programs that incorporate a fair 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 are also incorporated into programs developed for pregnant/postpartum women. The most effective 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.
