It is a known fact that individuals in rehab for drug and alcohol addiction are more likely to smoke tobacco, 75% in fact. As such few programs address the problem as a primary addiction, despite the fact that helping individuals stop smoking tobacco during rehab is associated with a 25 percent higher chance the client will stay free from substance abuse. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehabilitation programs in Okeechobee that implement a smoking ban and most of them also offer nicotine addiction treatment.
While total smoking bans are definitely not the norm, an increasing number of centers are starting to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make rehabs completely smoke-free environments. In so doing, they avoid the need to develop and enforce facility policies that are already legally in place and enforced legally by state and local agencies. Implementing a ban on smoking may make hesitant potential clients who smoke starting treatment. In the meantime, it will help those who do choose a smoking not allowed substance abuse rehab program be better able to get sober in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
