It is a fact that people in treatment for alcohol and/or drug addiction are more likely to be smokers, 75% in fact. As such few centers address the problem as a primary addiction, despite the fact that helping individuals quit smoking during rehab is associated with a 25 percent higher possibility the client will stay free from substance abuse. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment facilities in Catawba that implement a smoking ban and most of them also provide treatment for nicotine addiction.
While total bans on smoking are definitely not the norm, an increasing number of centers 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 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 smoking ban may deter potential clients who smoke starting treatment. In the meantime, it will help those who do choose a no smoking drug and alcohol addiction rehab program be better able to recover in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
