Pregnant and Postpartum Women - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Cheshire, CT.

The need for addiction rehab programs for pregnant and postpartum women is very high, with particular regards to opioid 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. Programs offered to pregnant and postpartum women in Cheshire provide broad range of services, non-punitive in nature, to make abstinence from drugs and alcohol a reality, ensure opioid dependent mothers and soon to be mothers transition into a sober and healthy pregnancy with non-addicted infants, and obtain the treatment they need to remain sober while postpartum.

States which offer pregnant and postpartum women with rehab services alternatively to legal consequences, including revocation of their parental rights, have found that these types of services sustain the idea of keeping the family as an unit and keeping the mother's abstinence and sobriety in place so that this positively enforces the welfare of the infants and other children involved. Services delivered at these types of programs might include individual, group, and family therapy as well as prenatal and postpartum care. Some programs may even provide training in parenthood and include trauma-specific services to work on any type of abusive relationships which bring on their drug or alcohol abuse as well as emotional and sexual abuse for all family members.

Many women in this position usually require extensive outpatient treatment services, but face many difficulties to their sobriety because of the difficult nature of being a single parent or sole caregiver. Substance abuse treatment facilities for pregnant and postpartum women often provide inpatient and residential care with beds for clients children, and aftercare services to sober living facilities with ongoing outpatient treatment services available to them including medical services.
