Pregnant and Postpartum Women - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Nashville, OH.

The need for addiction treatment facilities for pregnant and postpartum women has never been greater, with particular regards to opioid addicted 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. Programs available to pregnant and postpartum women in Nashville provide a comprehensive spectrum of services, non-punitive in nature, to make getting clean from drugs and alcohol feasible, allow opioid dependent mothers transition into a sober and healthy pregnancy with non-addicted newborn children, and receive the treatment they need to stay abstinent while postpartum.

States which provide pregnant and postpartum mothers with rehab 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 and sobriety in place so that this positively enforces the welfare of the newborns and other children involved. Services delivered at such rehabilitation programs might involve group, individual, and family counseling as well as prenatal and postpartum care. Some treatment programs may even provide education and training in parenting and include trauma-specific services to address any abusive relationships which stimulate their drug or alcohol abuse as well as sexual and emotional abuse for all family members.

Many women in this position normally need extensive outpatient treatment services, but face many difficulties to their sobriety due to the complex nature of being a single parent or sole caregiver. Substance abuse rehab centers for pregnant and postpartum women sometimes provide inpatient and residential treatment with beds for clients children, and aftercare services to sober living facilities with continuing outpatient therapy services offered to them including medical services.
