It is a fact that individuals in rehab for substance abuse are much more likely to be smokers, 75% in fact. As such few facilities address the situation as a primary addiction, despite the fact that helping clients stop smoking while in rehab is associated with a 25 percent greater chance the client will remain sober from drugs and alcohol. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehabilitation centers in Douglas that implement a smoking ban and most of them also offer treatment for nicotine addiction.
While complete bans on smoking are not normal, more and more programs are beginning to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make rehabs completely smoke free. In so doing, these mandates 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 smoking ban may deter potential clients who smoke starting treatment. In the meantime, it will help those who do choose a no smoking substance abuse rehab program be better able to recover in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
