It is a fact that individuals in treatment for drug and alcohol addiction are more likely to be smokers, 75% in fact. With that being said few programs address the situation as a primary addiction, even though the fact that helping individuals stop smoking tobacco while in rehab is associated with a 25% higher chance they will remain sober from drugs and alcohol. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment centers in Yorktown that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also offer treatment for nicotine addiction.
While total bans on smoking are not normal, an increasing number of programs are starting to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make rehabs completely smoke free. In so doing, they bypass the need to develop and implement facility policies that are already legally in place and enforced legally by state and local agencies. Implementing a smoking ban may deter potential clients who smoke starting treatment. At the same time it will help those who do choose a smoking not allowed substance abuse rehab program be better able to recover in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
