It is a known fact that individuals in treatment for drug and alcohol addiction are more likely to smoke tobacco, 75% in fact. With that being said very few facilities handle the situation as a primary addiction, even though the fact that helping clients stop smoking tobacco during treatment is associated with a 25 percent greater chance the individual will remain sober from alcohol and drugs. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehabilitation facilities in Lancaster that implement a smoking ban and most of them also provide nicotine addiction treatment.
While total smoking bans are definitely not the norm, an increasing number of centers are starting to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make rehabs completely smoke-free environments. In so doing, they 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 smoking ban may deter potential clients who smoke starting treatment. In the meantime, it will help those who do choose a no smoking substance abuse rehab center be better able to get sober in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
