It is a fact that individuals in treatment for alcohol and/or drug addiction are much more likely to be smokers, 75% in fact. As such very few facilities handle the problem as a primary addiction, despite the fact that helping people quit smoking during rehab is associated with a 25 percent higher possibility the individual will remain sober from alcohol and drugs. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehabilitation programs in West Brookfield that implement a smoking ban and most of them also offer treatment for nicotine addiction.
While total bans on smoking are definitely not the norm, an increasing number of programs are actually starting to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make rehabs completely smoke-free environments. In so doing, they 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 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 recover in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
