Smoking Not Allowed - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - West Stockbridge, MA.

It is a fact that people in treatment for substance abuse are much more likely to smoke tobacco, 75% in fact. As such few programs handle the problem as a primary addiction, even though the fact that helping clients stop smoking during rehab is associated with a 25 percent greater possibility the client will stay free from substance abuse. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehabilitation programs in West Stockbridge that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also provide treatment for nicotine addiction.

While total smoking bans are definitely not normal, an increasing number of centers are beginning to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make rehabs completely smoke free. In so doing, they avoid the need to develop and implement 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 alcohol and/or drug addiction rehab facility be better able to get sober in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
