Pregnant and Postpartum Women - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Sabattus, ME.

The need for addiction treatment programs for pregnant and postpartum women has never been greater, with special attention to opioid addicted pregnant and postpartum women because cases of neonatal abstinence syndrome have risen 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 Sabattus provide wide range of services, non-punitive in nature, to make getting clean from drugs and alcohol a reality, ensure opioid dependent mothers the transformation into a sober and healthy pregnancy with non-addicted infants, and get the treatment they need to remain sober during postpartum.

States that offer pregnant and postpartum mothers with treatment services rather than legal penalties, such as revocation of their parental rights, have found that these types of services sustain the idea of maintaining the family as an unit and keeping the mother's abstinence in place so that this positively impact's the welfare of the infants and other children involved. Services provided at these types of programs may include individual, group, and family therapy as well as prenatal and postpartum care. Some treatment programs may even provide training in parenthood and incorporate trauma-specific services to address any abusive relationships which trigger their drug or alcohol abuse as well as emotional and sexual abuse for all family members.

Most women in this position typically need comprehensive outpatient treatment services, yet face many difficulties to their sobriety due to the difficult nature of being a single parent or sole caregiver. Substance abuse rehab centers for pregnant and postpartum women often provide inpatient and residential treatment with beds for clients children, and aftercare services to sober living programs with continuing outpatient therapy services available to them including medical services.
