It is a known fact that individuals in rehab for substance abuse are more likely to be smokers, 75% in fact. As such very few programs handle the situation as a main addiction, even though the fact that helping clients quit smoking during rehab is associated with a 25% greater possibility the individual will remain free from substance abuse. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment centers in Lexington that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also provide treatment for nicotine addiction.
While total smoking bans are not normal, more and more rehabs are 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. Implementing a complete smoking ban may deter potential clients who smoke starting treatment. At the same time it will help those who do choose a no smoking drug and alcohol addiction rehab facility be better able to get sober in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
