The need for drug and alcohol rehab programs for pregnant and postpartum women is very high, with special regards to opiate addicted pregnant and postpartum women because 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. Programs provided for pregnant and postpartum women in Zahl offer broad spectrum of services, non-punitive in nature, to make abstinence from drugs and alcohol possible, ensure opioid dependent mothers and soon to be mothers the transformation into a drug free and healthy pregnancy with non-addicted infants, and get the treatment they need to stay abstinent while postpartum.
States which provide pregnant and postpartum mothers with rehab services rather than legal consequences, including revocation of their parental rights, have found that these types of services sustain 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 newborns and other children involved. Services delivered at such rehabilitation programs may involve group, individual, and family counseling as well as prenatal and postpartum care. Some rehab centers may even provide education in parenting and include trauma-specific services to work on any abusive relationships which trigger their substance abuse as well as emotional and sexual abuse for everyone in the family.
Many women in this situation typically require comprehensive outpatient treatment services, yet face many difficulties to their sobriety due to the complex nature of being a single parent or sole caregiver. drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers for pregnant and postpartum women sometimes offer residential and inpatient care with beds for clients children, and transition services to sober living programs with continuing outpatient therapy services available to them including medical services.
