Smoking Not Allowed - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Housatonic, MA.

It is a fact that individuals in treatment for substance abuse are much more likely to smoke tobacco, 75% in fact. With that being said very few programs address the situation as a primary addiction, even though the fact that helping clients quit smoking tobacco while in treatment is associated with a 25% greater chance they will remain sober from alcohol and drugs. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehabilitation centers in Housatonic that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also offer treatment for nicotine addiction.

While total smoking bans are not normal, an increasing number of programs are actually starting to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make facilities completely smoke-free environments. In doing so, they bypass the need to develop and enforce facility policies that are already legally in place and enforced legally by state and local agencies. Implementing a complete ban on smoking may make hesitant 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.
