Programs that have residential beds for clients offer these beds so that women can be in a safe site with their child/children while they're in the rehab that will save their lives and keep their children with them. The alternative for these kids would be extremely bad in most cases, so it can ease the mind of the woman and also the child, to have a safe place to live and be together. Residential beds are available for postpartum women or pregnant women and usually for kids until the age of 5 or 6.
How long one can stay in one of these residential type centers can be different, and so can rehab offerings. For pregnant and postpartum women, beds are accessible but so are medical services specific to these clients. If a woman is pregnant, or postpartum and breastfeeding, these issues are taken under advisement during detoxification and after to make sure the child is safe. For example, a mother who is opiate addicted or who is receiving methadone assisted treatment would be treated in a way that would ensure the baby's safety. Besides the residential beds available, many programs in Wellesley Island have other offerings to help parents get through treatment more easily like child care.
