Smoking Not Allowed - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Portage, ME.

It is a known fact that people in treatment for substance abuse are much more likely to be smokers, 75 percent in fact. As such few facilities handle the problem as a primary addiction, despite the fact that helping people stop smoking tobacco while in rehab is associated with a 25 percent greater chance they will stay free from substance abuse. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment programs in Portage that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also offer treatment for nicotine addiction.

While complete bans on smoking are definitely not normal, more and more programs are beginning to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make facilities completely smoke-free environments. 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. Enforcing a ban on smoking may make hesitant potential clients who smoke starting treatment. In the meantime, it will help those who do choose a no smoking drug and alcohol addiction rehab center be better able to get sober in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
