It is a fact that clients in rehab for substance abuse are more likely to be smokers, 75% in fact. As such very few centers address the situation as a primary addiction, even though the fact that helping individuals quit smoking tobacco during rehab is associated with a 25 percent higher possibility the individual will remain free from substance abuse. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment programs in Summit that implement a smoking ban and most of them also provide nicotine addiction treatment.
While total bans on smoking are not the norm, more and more facilities are beginning to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make facilities completely smoke free. In so doing, they 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 complete smoking ban may deter 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 program be better able to recover in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
