It is a known fact that people in treatment for drug and alcohol addiction are much more likely to be smokers, 75% in fact. With that being said very few facilities address the situation as a main addiction, even though the fact that helping individuals stop smoking tobacco during treatment is associated with a 25% higher possibility the client will remain free from substance abuse. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment programs in Melrose that implement a smoking ban and most of them also provide nicotine addiction treatment.
While total bans on smoking are not the norm, an increasing number of programs are starting to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make rehabs completely smoke free. In doing so, they avoid 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 make hesitant 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 addiction and drug free environment.
