Smoking Not Allowed - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Ottawa Lake, MI.

It is a fact that individuals in rehabilitation for alcohol and/or drug addiction are much more likely to be smokers, 75 percent in fact. As such very few centers handle the situation as a primary addiction, even though the fact that helping clients quit smoking tobacco while in treatment is associated with a 25% greater chance the individual will remain sober from alcohol and drugs. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment facilities in Ottawa Lake that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also offer nicotine addiction treatment.

While total bans on smoking are definitely not the norm, an increasing number of facilities are beginning to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make rehabs completely smoke-free environments. In doing so, they bypass 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 ban on smoking 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 facility be better able to recover in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
