It is estimated that around 75% of clients at residential rehab programs for drug and alcohol addiction are smokers. While it is true that nicotine is addicting and people in any sort of treatment for addiction should strive to be abstinent from all addictive substances, this can present problems that make enforcing a non-smoking facility outweigh the benefits of this restriction. Someone who is addicted to a substance that could very well kill them immediately might not agree to go to treatment if they have to quit smoking cigarettes, so therefore, many facilities in Tanner allow smoking with some limitations, restrictions and in designated areas of their facility.
Some programs permit clients to smoke anywhere, so long as it is outside for example. Some facilities have a designated smoking area, which is the only area that clients can smoke. Due to the fact that nicotine is addictive, even rehab facilities that allow smoking usually provide alternatives to smoking if the client wants to quit, such as nicotine replacement gum, patches and prescriptions. There are also rehab centers that permit smoking in designated areas, but provide education on the health risks associated with smoking by integrating this into their program either by way of direct education or by offering educational literature for clients to consider. In rehab centers which permit smoking in designated areas this is typically only authorized for clients, whereas staff are sometimes restricted from smoking at the center or are encouraged to not smoke in front of clients.
Publicly funded substance abuse treatment programs are bound by the rules and restrictions in regards to smoking that are imposed by state and federal agencies which oversee and administer these programs. Private rehabilitation programs have a little more tolerance and don't have as many restrictions imposed on them, so may be more likely to provide designated areas for smoking.
