Smoking Not Allowed - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Washington, ME.

It is a known fact that clients in rehabilitation for substance abuse are much more likely to smoke tobacco, 75% in fact. With that being said few centers address the problem as a primary addiction, even though the fact that helping clients quit smoking tobacco during rehab is associated with a 25 percent greater chance the individual will stay sober from drugs and alcohol. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehab centers in Washington that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also offer treatment for nicotine addiction.

While total smoking bans are definitely not the norm, more and more facilities are 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 smoking ban may deter potential clients who smoke starting treatment. In the meantime, it will help those who do choose a smoking not allowed substance abuse rehab program be better able to get sober in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
