It is a known fact that individuals in treatment for drug and alcohol addiction are more likely to smoke tobacco, 75% in fact. As such very few programs address the problem as a main addiction, even though the fact that helping individuals stop smoking tobacco during rehab is associated with a 25 percent higher chance they will stay free from substance abuse. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment centers in Southbridge that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also provide nicotine addiction treatment.
While total bans on smoking are definitely not normal, an increasing number of facilities are actually beginning to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make rehabs completely smoke free. In doing so, these mandates 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 ban on smoking may deter potential clients who smoke starting treatment. In the meantime, it will help those who do choose a smoking not allowed alcohol and/or drug addiction rehab program be better able to recover in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
