Smoking Not Allowed - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Merrill, MI.

It is a fact that people in treatment for substance abuse are more likely to be smokers, 75% in fact. As such few facilities handle the situation as a main addiction, even though the fact that helping clients quit smoking tobacco while in treatment is associated with a 25% higher chance the individual will stay free from substance abuse. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehabilitation programs in Merrill that implement a smoking ban and most of them also provide treatment for nicotine addiction.

While total smoking bans are not the norm, more and more facilities are starting to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt 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. Enforcing a ban on smoking may deter 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 recover in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
