It is a known fact that people in treatment for drug and alcohol addiction are more likely to smoke tobacco, 75% in fact. As such very few facilities address the situation as a primary addiction, despite the fact that helping people quit smoking tobacco during treatment is associated with a 25 percent greater possibility they will remain free from substance abuse. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehabilitation facilities in Southampton that implement a smoking ban and most of them also offer nicotine addiction treatment.
While complete bans on smoking are definitely not normal, more and more rehabs are starting to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make facilities completely smoke free. In so doing, these mandates 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 smoking ban 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 addiction and drug free environment.
