Rehab facilities available to pregnant and postpartum women in Richfield offer a comprehensive range of services, non-punitive in nature, to make abstinence from drugs and alcohol feasible, allow opioid dependent mothers and soon to be mothers the transformation into a drug free and healthy pregnancy with non-addicted infants, and get the treatment they need to remain abstinent while postpartum.
