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