Pregnant and Postpartum Women - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Lehigh, OK.

The demand for drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs for pregnant and postpartum women has never been greater, with special attention to opioid addicted pregnant and postpartum women since 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 provided for pregnant and postpartum women in Lehigh offer a comprehensive spectrum of services, non-punitive in nature, to make getting clean from drugs and alcohol feasible, ensure opioid addicted mothers transition into a sober and healthy pregnancy with non-opioid dependent infants, and obtain the recovery they need to stay abstinent during postpartum.

States which offer pregnant and postpartum women with treatment services alternatively to legal penalties, including revocation of their parental rights, have found that these measures sustain the idea of maintaining the family as an unit and keeping the mother's abstinence and sobriety in place so that this positively enforces the welfare of the infants and other children involved. Services offered at such rehabilitation 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 include trauma-specific services to work on any abusive relationships which stimulate their substance abuse as well as sexual and emotional abuse for all family members.

Substance abuse treatment programs for pregnant and postpartum women sometimes provide inpatient and residential treatment with beds for clients children, and transition services to sober living programs with ongoing outpatient therapy services available to them including healthcare services.
