It is a known fact that clients in rehab for drug and alcohol addiction are more likely to smoke tobacco, 75 percent in fact. With that being said few programs address the problem as a main addiction, despite the fact that helping clients quit smoking tobacco while in rehab is associated with a 25% greater chance they will remain free from substance abuse. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment programs in Cortland that implement a smoking ban and most of them also offer nicotine addiction treatment.
While total smoking bans are definitely not normal, more and more facilities are starting to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make rehabs 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 ban on smoking may make hesitant 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 get sober in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
