Smoking Not Allowed - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Bear Mountain, NY.

It is a known fact that clients in rehabilitation for alcohol and/or drug addiction are much more likely to smoke tobacco, 75% in fact. As such very few programs address the problem as a primary addiction, even though the fact that helping people stop smoking tobacco during rehab is associated with a 25 percent greater chance the client will remain sober from alcohol and drugs. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehab programs in Bear Mountain that implement a smoking ban and most of them also provide treatment for nicotine addiction.

While total smoking bans are not the norm, an increasing number of facilities are actually starting to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make facilities completely smoke free. In doing so, these mandates bypass the need to develop and enforce facility policies that are already legally in place and enforced legally by state and local agencies. Implementing a 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 substance abuse rehab facility be better able to get sober in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
