Pregnant and Postpartum Women - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Whittemore, MI.

The demand for substance abuse rehab facilities for pregnant and postpartum women is very high, with special attention to opioid dependent 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 provided for pregnant and postpartum women in Whittemore provide a comprehensive range of services, non-punitive in nature, to make abstinence from drugs and alcohol a reality, ensure opioid dependent mothers transition into a sober and healthy pregnancy with non-addicted newborn children, and get the rehabilitation they need to stay abstinent during postpartum.

States that offer pregnant and postpartum mothers with rehab services alternatively to legal penalties, including revocation of their parental rights, have found that these types of services sustain the idea of maintaining the family together and maintaining the mother's abstinence and sobriety in place so that this positively enforces the well-being of the newborns and other children involved. Services provided at these types of programs might involve group, individual, and family therapy as well as prenatal and postpartum care. Some treatment programs may even offer training in parenting 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.
