It is a fact that clients in rehabilitation for substance abuse are much more likely to be smokers, 75% in fact. As such few programs address the problem as a primary addiction, despite the fact that helping people quit smoking tobacco during treatment is associated with a 25% higher chance they will remain sober from drugs and alcohol. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehab facilities in Sault St.e Marie that implement a smoking ban and most of them also offer treatment for nicotine addiction.
While total bans on smoking are definitely not normal, more and more facilities are beginning to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make facilities completely smoke free. In so doing, they avoid 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 alcohol and/or drug addiction rehab program be better able to recover in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
