It is a known fact that people in treatment for substance abuse are much more likely to smoke tobacco, 75% in fact. With that being said few programs address the situation as a primary addiction, even though the fact that helping people quit smoking while in rehab is associated with a 25% greater chance the individual will stay sober from alcohol and drugs. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment facilities in Oxford that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also provide nicotine addiction treatment.
While complete bans on smoking are not the norm, an increasing number of facilities are starting to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make facilities completely smoke free. In so doing, 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 no smoking drug and alcohol addiction rehab facility be better able to recover in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
