Hello,
Thanks for using Healthcaremagic.

First there is need to ensure safety of children. This can be done by removing the children from dangerous area of their mother. This can be done by use of child protection agencies active in the area.

Second she need to be get admitted in drug rehabilitation centre for detoxification and abstinence. This can be done by use of community health groups acting in the field of substance abuse.

I hope this helps you.
Thanks and regards.
