It is a known fact that people in treatment for alcohol and/or drug addiction are more likely to smoke tobacco, 75 percent in fact. With that being said very few facilities address the situation as a primary addiction, even though the fact that helping individuals stop smoking tobacco during treatment is associated with a 25% higher chance they will remain sober from drugs and alcohol. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment centers in Fresno 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 centers are actually beginning to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make facilities completely smoke free. In so doing, these mandates avoid the need to develop and implement facility policies that are already legally in place and enforced legally by state and local agencies. Implementing a smoking ban 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 program be better able to recover in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
