Spofford, New Hampshire - Pregnant/Postpartum WomenToday, there are drug and alcohol rehab programs 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. Treatment programs for pregnant/postpartum women often 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 designed for pregnant/postpartum women. The most successful pregnant/postpartum treatment 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.
