Smoking Not Allowed - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Union, ME.

It is a fact that clients in rehabilitation for drug and alcohol addiction are more likely to be smokers, 75 percent in fact. With that being said very few facilities address the problem as a primary addiction, despite the fact that helping clients quit smoking while in rehab is associated with a 25% higher chance they will stay free from substance abuse. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehab programs in Union that implement a smoking ban and most of them also offer treatment for nicotine addiction.

While total bans on smoking are not the norm, 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 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. Implementing a complete ban on smoking may make hesitant potential clients who smoke starting treatment. At the same time it will help those who do choose a no smoking drug and alcohol addiction rehab program be better able to get sober in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
