It is a fact that clients in rehabilitation for substance abuse are much more likely to be smokers, 75 percent in fact. With that being said very few centers address the problem as a main addiction, even though the fact that helping individuals stop smoking tobacco during rehab is associated with a 25 percent higher possibility they will stay sober from alcohol and drugs. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment programs in Martinsburg that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also provide nicotine addiction treatment.
While complete bans on smoking are definitely not the norm, more and more facilities are actually starting to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make facilities completely smoke free. In so doing, these mandates avoid the need to develop and implement facility policies that are already legally in place and enforced legally by state and local agencies. Implementing a complete ban on smoking 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 get sober in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
