It is a fact that people in rehab for alcohol and/or drug addiction are more likely to smoke tobacco, 75 percent in fact. As such few facilities handle the situation as a primary addiction, despite the fact that helping individuals stop smoking while in rehab is associated with a 25 percent greater chance the client will stay sober from drugs and alcohol. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehab facilities in Irondale that implement a smoking ban and most of them also provide treatment for nicotine addiction.
While total bans on smoking are not normal, more and more programs are actually beginning to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make facilities completely smoke free. In doing so, they avoid 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 substance abuse rehab facility be better able to recover in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
