It is a fact that people in rehabilitation for drug and alcohol addiction are much more likely to smoke tobacco, 75% in fact. With that being said very few centers handle the situation as a main addiction, despite the fact that helping people stop smoking tobacco while in treatment is associated with a 25 percent greater possibility they will stay sober from drugs and alcohol. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment centers in Lynchburg that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also offer treatment for nicotine addiction.
While total smoking bans are not the norm, more and more programs are starting to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make rehabs completely smoke free. In doing so, they avoid the need to develop and enforce facility policies that are already legally in place and enforced legally by state and local agencies. Implementing a smoking ban may make hesitant potential clients who smoke starting treatment. In the meantime, it will help those who do choose a smoking not allowed substance abuse rehab program be better able to get sober in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
