It is a fact that individuals in treatment for drug and alcohol addiction are more likely to be smokers, 75% in fact. As such few centers address the problem as a primary addiction, despite the fact that helping clients quit smoking during rehab is associated with a 25 percent higher possibility they will stay free from substance abuse. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehabilitation facilities in Lincoln that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also provide treatment for nicotine addiction.
While complete smoking bans are not the norm, an increasing number of programs are beginning to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make facilities completely smoke-free environments. In doing so, they bypass the need to develop and implement facility policies that are already legally in place and enforced legally by state and local agencies. Enforcing a ban on smoking may deter potential clients who smoke starting treatment. In the meantime, 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.
