It is a fact that clients in rehab for drug and alcohol addiction are much more likely to smoke tobacco, 75% in fact. As such very few facilities address the situation as a primary addiction, even though the fact that helping people quit smoking tobacco while in 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 Sullivan that implement a smoking ban and most of them also provide nicotine addiction treatment.
While complete smoking bans are not normal, more and more facilities are beginning to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make facilities completely smoke free. In doing so, 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 complete ban on smoking may deter potential clients who smoke starting treatment. At the same time it will help those who do choose a no smoking substance abuse rehab center be better able to recover in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
