It is a known fact that clients in treatment for alcohol and/or drug addiction are more likely to be smokers, 75% in fact. As such few facilities address the problem as a main addiction, despite the fact that helping clients stop smoking tobacco while in rehab is associated with a 25% higher chance they will remain sober from alcohol and drugs. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment programs in Heath that implement a smoking ban and most of them also provide treatment for nicotine addiction.
While total bans on smoking are definitely not normal, more and more rehabs are 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, 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 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 get sober in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
