Pregnant and Postpartum Women - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Houston, MS.

The need for drug and alcohol treatment facilities for pregnant and postpartum women is very high, with particular attention to opioid addicted pregnant and postpartum women because 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 available to pregnant and postpartum women in Houston provide broad range of services, non-punitive in nature, to make getting off drugs and alcohol feasible, ensure opioid addicted mothers and soon to be mothers a passage into a clean and healthy pregnancy with non-addicted newborn children, and get the recovery they need to remain clean and sober during postpartum.

States that offer pregnant and postpartum mothers with treatment services alternatively to legal consequences, such as revocation of their parental rights, have found that these measures sustain the idea of keeping the family together and maintaining the mother's abstinence in place so that this positively impact's the well-being of the newborns and other children involved. Services delivered at such rehabilitation programs may involve 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 abusive relationships which bring on their substance abuse as well as sexual and emotional abuse for everyone in the family.
