Pregnant and Postpartum Women - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Irvington, AL.

The need for addiction treatment facilities for pregnant and postpartum women is very high, with particular attention to opiate dependent pregnant and postpartum women since cases of neonatal abstinence syndrome have risen from 7 cases per 1,000 admissions to neonatal intensive care units in 2004 to 27 cases per 1,000 admissions in 2013. Rehab facilities provided for pregnant and postpartum women in Irvington provide broad spectrum of services, non-punitive in nature, to make abstinence from drugs and alcohol feasible, allow opioid addicted mothers a passage into a clean and healthy pregnancy with non-opioid dependent infants, and get the treatment they need to remain abstinent while postpartum.

States which offer pregnant and postpartum women with rehab services in lieu of legal penalties, including revocation of their parental rights, have found that these types of services support the idea of keeping the family as an unit and keeping the mother's abstinence in place so that this positively enforces the welfare of the newborns and other children involved. Services offered at these types of programs may involve individual, group, and family counseling as well as prenatal and postpartum care. Some programs may even provide education and training in parenthood and include trauma-specific services to address any type of abusive relationships which stimulate their substance abuse as well as sexual and emotional abuse for all family members.

Substance abuse treatment centers for pregnant and postpartum women often offer inpatient and residential care with beds for clients children, and transition services to sober living facilities with continuing outpatient treatment services available to them including healthcare services.
