Tillson - Pregnant/Postpartum Women

Today, there are drug and alcohol treatment facilities that are designed to focus on specific drug addicted groups such as pregnant/postpartum women. These treatment facilities cater to the needs of their clients and they address specific issues that are unique just to them. Rehabilitation centers for pregnant/postpartum women typically provide individualized programs that incorporate a good 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 effective pregnant/postpartum rehabilitation 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.
