Smoking Not Allowed - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Oakland, FL.

It is a known fact that clients in treatment for substance abuse are much more likely to be smokers, 75% in fact. As such few programs handle the problem as a primary addiction, even though the fact that helping clients quit smoking tobacco during rehab is associated with a 25 percent higher chance the individual will remain sober from drugs and alcohol. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehab programs in Oakland that implement a smoking ban and most of them also provide nicotine addiction treatment.

While total smoking bans are definitely not normal, more and more facilities are actually beginning to enforce 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. Enforcing a complete ban on smoking may deter potential clients who smoke starting treatment. In the meantime, it will help those who do choose a no smoking substance abuse rehab facility be better able to recover in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
