Smoking Not Allowed - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Albany, OK.

It is a known fact that people in rehabilitation for drug and alcohol addiction are more likely to be smokers, 75 percent in fact. As such very few centers handle the problem as a main addiction, despite the fact that helping people quit smoking during rehab is associated with a 25 percent higher chance they will remain free from substance abuse. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehab centers in Albany that implement a smoking ban and most of them also provide treatment for nicotine addiction.

While complete bans on smoking are not normal, an increasing number of centers are 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, 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 deter potential clients who smoke starting treatment. At the same time it will help those who do choose a no smoking alcohol and/or drug addiction rehab program be better able to get sober in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
