It is a fact that people in treatment for alcohol and/or drug addiction are much more likely to smoke tobacco, 75 percent in fact. As such few centers handle the problem as a main addiction, even though the fact that helping individuals stop smoking tobacco during treatment is associated with a 25% greater chance they will stay sober from drugs and alcohol. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment programs in Nevada that implement a smoking ban and most of them also offer nicotine addiction treatment.
While total smoking bans are not normal, an increasing number of programs are actually starting to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make facilities completely smoke-free environments. In doing so, 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. Enforcing a smoking ban may make hesitant potential clients who smoke starting treatment. In the meantime, it will help those who do choose a no smoking alcohol and/or drug addiction rehab facility be better able to recover in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
