It is a known fact that clients in rehab for substance abuse are more likely to be smokers, 75 percent in fact. With that being said very few programs address the problem as a main addiction, even though the fact that helping individuals quit smoking during treatment is associated with a 25% higher chance the individual will remain free from substance abuse. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehab centers in Melrose that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also offer treatment for nicotine addiction.
While total bans on smoking are not normal, more and more facilities are actually starting to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make rehabs completely smoke-free environments. In doing so, these mandates 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 alcohol and/or drug addiction rehab facility be better able to recover in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
