It is a fact that individuals in treatment for substance abuse are more likely to smoke tobacco, 75 percent in fact. As such few centers address the situation as a primary addiction, despite the fact that helping clients stop smoking tobacco while in treatment is associated with a 25% greater possibility the individual will stay sober from alcohol and drugs. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment programs in St. Augustine that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also offer treatment for nicotine addiction.
While total bans on smoking are definitely not the norm, more and more facilities are actually starting to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make rehabs completely smoke free. In so doing, 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 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 program be better able to recover in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
