Pregnant and Postpartum Women - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Dallas, NC.

The need for drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers for pregnant and postpartum women has never been greater, with special regards to opioid dependent 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. Rehab facilities available to pregnant and postpartum women in Dallas offer wide spectrum of services, non-punitive in nature, to make abstinence from drugs and alcohol feasible, allow opioid dependent mothers transition into a clean and healthy pregnancy with non-opioid dependent infants, and obtain the recovery they need to remain clean and sober while postpartum.

States that provide pregnant and postpartum mothers with treatment services in lieu of legal penalties, such as revocation of their parental rights, have found that these measures sustain the idea of keeping 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 offered at these types of rehabilitation programs might involve group, individual, and family therapy as well as prenatal and postpartum care. Some programs may even offer education and training in parenting and include trauma-specific services to address any abusive relationships which trigger their substance abuse as well as sexual and emotional abuse for all family members.

Most women in this position usually need comprehensive outpatient treatment services, yet 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 sometimes provide residential and inpatient care with beds for clients children, and aftercare services to sober living programs with ongoing outpatient therapy services available to them including medical services.
