It is a known fact that clients in rehab for drug and alcohol addiction are more likely to smoke tobacco, 75 percent in fact. As such few programs handle the situation as a primary addiction, despite the fact that helping people quit smoking while in rehab is associated with a 25% greater chance the client will stay free from substance abuse. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehabilitation facilities in Old Washington that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also provide treatment for nicotine addiction.
While total smoking bans are definitely not the norm, more and more facilities are actually beginning to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle 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. Enforcing a smoking ban may deter potential clients who smoke starting treatment. In the meantime, it will help those who do choose a no smoking drug and alcohol addiction rehab facility be better able to get sober in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
