Rehab Centers that offer residential beds for clients have these beds so that women can have a safe site for their child/children while they're in the rehab that will restore their lives and keep their children with them. The other outcome for the children would be much worse in most cases, so it can help the mother as well as the child, to have a safe place to live and be together. Residential beds are accessible for women who are pregnant or postpartum and for children up to the age of 5-6 yrs old.
The length of stay in one of these residential programs can vary, and so can treatment offerings. For pregnant or postpartum mothers, beds are accessible but so are essential medical services that cater to these women. If a woman may be pregnant, or breast feeding and postpartum, these factors are taken into account during and after detox to make sure the child is safe. For Instance, a person who is opiate dependent or who is getting methadone assisted treatment would be treated in a way which would keep the baby safe. Aside from the residential beds available, many programs in Prestonville have other services to help parents get through treatment more easily like daycare.
