It is a known fact that people in rehabilitation for alcohol and/or drug addiction are more likely to be smokers, 75 percent in fact. As such very few programs handle the situation as a main addiction, even though the fact that helping individuals quit smoking while in rehab is associated with a 25 percent higher chance the individual will stay sober from alcohol and drugs. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehab facilities in Big Pine Key that implement a smoking ban and most of them also provide nicotine addiction treatment.
While complete bans on smoking are not the norm, more and more programs are beginning to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make rehabs completely smoke-free environments. In doing so, these mandates bypass the need to develop and enforce facility policies that are already legally in place and enforced legally by state and local agencies. Implementing a complete ban on smoking may make hesitant potential clients who smoke starting treatment. At the same time it will help those who do choose a no smoking substance abuse rehab facility be better able to get sober in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
