Pregnant and Postpartum Women - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Fairhaven, MA.

The demand for substance abuse rehabilitation facilities for pregnant and postpartum women has never been greater, with special regards to opioid dependent pregnant and postpartum women since cases of neonatal abstinence syndrome have increased from 7 cases per 1,000 admissions to neonatal intensive care units in 2004 to 27 cases per 1,000 admissions in 2013. Treatment centers offered to pregnant and postpartum women in Fairhaven provide broad range of services, non-punitive in nature, to make getting off drugs and alcohol feasible, allow opioid addicted mothers a passage into a clean and healthy pregnancy with non-opioid dependent infants, and receive the treatment they need to remain abstinent while postpartum.

States that offer pregnant and postpartum mothers with treatment services rather than legal consequences, including revocation of their parental rights, have found that these types of services support the idea of maintaining the family as an unit and maintaining the mother's abstinence in place so that this positively enforces the well-being of the infants and other children involved. Services provided at these types of rehabilitation programs may involve group, individual, and family counseling as well as prenatal and postpartum care. Some treatment programs may even provide training in parenting and include trauma-specific services to handle any type of abusive relationships which trigger their substance abuse as well as emotional and sexual abuse for all family members.

Many women in this position normally require extensive outpatient treatment services, yet face many challenges to their sobriety because of the complex nature of being a single parent. Substance abuse rehabilitation programs for pregnant and postpartum women often provide inpatient and residential care with beds for clients children, and aftercare services to sober living facilities with continuing outpatient treatment services available to them including medical services.
