The need for drug and alcohol rehab centers for pregnant and postpartum women has never been greater, with particular attention 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 offered to pregnant and postpartum women in Atlanta provide broad range 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 infants, and obtain the recovery they need to remain sober during postpartum.
States that provide pregnant and postpartum women with rehab services rather than legal penalties, including revocation of their parental rights, have found that these types of services sustain the idea of keeping the family as an unit and keeping the mother's abstinence and sobriety in place so that this positively impact's the well-being of the newborns and other children involved. Services delivered at these types of programs might include group, individual, and family counseling as well as prenatal and postpartum care. Some treatment programs may even provide education in parenting and include trauma-specific services to work on any abusive relationships which trigger their substance abuse as well as emotional and sexual abuse for everyone in the family.
Most women in this position often need comprehensive outpatient treatment services, but face many difficulties to their sobriety because of the difficult nature of being a single parent. Substance abuse rehab programs for pregnant and postpartum women sometimes provide residential and inpatient treatment with beds for clients children, and aftercare services to sober living programs with ongoing outpatient treatment services available to them including medical services.
