It is a fact that clients in treatment for substance abuse are more likely to smoke tobacco, 75 percent in fact. As such very few centers handle the situation as a primary addiction, even though the fact that helping people quit smoking tobacco while in rehab is associated with a 25% higher chance they will remain sober from alcohol and drugs. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment programs in Gilford that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also provide treatment for nicotine addiction.
While total bans on smoking are not normal, an increasing number of 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 doing so, 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. Enforcing a smoking ban may make hesitant potential clients who smoke starting treatment. In the meantime, it will help those who do choose a no smoking alcohol and/or drug addiction rehab facility be better able to get sober in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
