It is a known fact that people in rehab for drug and alcohol addiction are more likely to be smokers, 75% in fact. With that being said very few programs address the situation as a primary addiction, despite the fact that helping people stop smoking during treatment is associated with a 25 percent greater possibility the client will stay sober from alcohol and drugs. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment programs in Burbank that implement a smoking ban and most of them also offer treatment for nicotine addiction.
While complete smoking bans are not normal, more and more rehabs are beginning to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make rehabs 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 smoking ban may deter potential clients who smoke starting treatment. At the same time it will help those who do choose a no smoking alcohol and/or drug addiction rehab center be better able to recover in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
