It is a known fact that clients in rehabilitation for drug and alcohol addiction are much more likely to smoke tobacco, 75 percent in fact. With that being said very few programs handle the problem as a primary addiction, despite the fact that helping people stop smoking tobacco during treatment is associated with a 25 percent greater possibility they will remain sober from alcohol and drugs. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment programs in Atkinson that implement a smoking ban and most of them also provide nicotine addiction treatment.
While complete bans on smoking are not the norm, more and more centers are actually beginning to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make rehabs completely smoke-free environments. In so doing, these mandates 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 make hesitant potential clients who smoke starting treatment. In the meantime, it will help those who do choose a no smoking substance abuse rehab center be better able to get sober in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
