CARE (Clinic for Acceptance, Recovery, and Empowerment) in pregnancy is one of the only programs in St. Louis that offers prenatal care, substance abuse treatment and extended postpartum support for pregnant women facing the challenges of an opioid use disorder and their babies who might suffer from Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome (NAS).
Hayley Friedman, MD and Jeannie Kelly, MD, from the Women & Infants Center, discuss how the multi-disciplinary approach to care and the personalized treatment plans help support the well-being of mother and child not just during pregnancy, but for at least one full year postpartum.
