It is a fact that individuals in treatment for alcohol and/or drug addiction are more likely to be smokers, 75 percent in fact. As such few facilities address the problem as a main addiction, even though the fact that helping clients quit smoking tobacco during rehab is associated with a 25 percent higher chance the individual will remain sober from drugs and alcohol. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehabilitation centers in Newtonsville that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also provide nicotine addiction treatment.
While complete bans on smoking are definitely not the norm, an increasing number of facilities are actually beginning 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, 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 complete smoking ban may deter potential clients who smoke starting treatment. In the meantime, it will help those who do choose a smoking not allowed substance abuse rehab facility be better able to recover in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
