Rehab Centers which offer residential beds for clients offer these beds so women can be in a protected site with their children while they're in the rehab that will restore their lives and give them the chance to stay with their children. The other outcome for these kids would be much worse in most cases, so it can ease the mind of the mother and the child, to have a protected place to live and be with each other. Residential beds are available for women who are pregnant or postpartum and usually for kids until the age of 5-6 yrs old.
The length of stay in these residential type programs can vary, and so can rehab services. For pregnant or postpartum mothers, beds are available but so are essential medical services that cater to these mothers. If a woman may be pregnant, or perhaps breast feeding and postpartum, these factors are taken into account during and after detox to make sure the child is safe. As an example, a mother who is opiate addicted or who is getting methadone assisted rehab would be treated in a manner which would keep the baby safe. Besides the residential beds available, many facilities in Alexandria have other services to help mothers and fathers get through rehab more easily such as child care.
