GET HELP LOCATING A DRUG TREATMENT PROGRAM
Today, there are drug and alcohol rehab facilities that are created to focus on specific drug addicted 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 programs for pregnant/postpartum women commonly offer individualized programs that incorporate a good 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 integrated into facilities developed for pregnant/postpartum women. The most successful pregnant/postpartum rehab facilities 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 treatment.
