It is a known fact that people in treatment for alcohol and/or drug addiction are much more likely to be smokers, 75 percent in fact. As such few centers address the problem as a primary addiction, despite the fact that helping clients quit smoking tobacco while in treatment is associated with a 25 percent higher possibility they will stay sober from alcohol and drugs. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment facilities in Dawson that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also offer nicotine addiction treatment.
While total bans on smoking are definitely not the norm, more and more programs are starting to enforce 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 bypass 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 make hesitant potential clients who smoke starting treatment. In the meantime, it will help those who do choose a no smoking substance abuse rehab facility be better able to recover in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
