Rehab Centers which offer residential beds for clients have these beds so that women can have a secure site with their child/children while they receive the treatment that will restore their lives and keep their children with them. The alternative for the children would be much worse , so it can help the mother and the kid, to have a secure place to stay and be with each other. Residential beds are accessible for postpartum women or pregnant women and usually for kids up to the age of 5 or 6.
The length of stay in these residential type centers can vary, and so can rehab services. For postpartum and pregnant women, beds are available but so are medical services specific to these people. If a woman is pregnant, or breast feeding and postpartum, these factors are taken into account during and after detoxification to ensure the safety of the child. As an example, a mother who is opiate addicted or who is receiving methadone assisted treatment would be treated in a manner which would ensure the baby's safety. In addition to the residential beds available, many centers in Lawrence offer other services to help mothers get through treatment more easily such as daycare.
