It is a known fact that individuals in rehab for alcohol and/or drug addiction are much more likely to smoke tobacco, 75 percent in fact. With that being said very few facilities handle the problem as a primary addiction, despite the fact that helping individuals quit smoking tobacco during rehab is associated with a 25 percent higher possibility they will remain sober from alcohol and drugs. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehabilitation programs in Decatur that implement a smoking ban and most of them also offer treatment for nicotine addiction.
While complete bans on smoking are not the norm, an increasing number of facilities are actually starting to enforce 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 implement facility policies that are already legally in place and enforced legally by state and local agencies. Implementing a smoking ban may deter potential clients who smoke starting treatment. At the same time it will help those who do choose a smoking not allowed alcohol and/or drug addiction rehab program be better able to recover in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
