It is estimated that around 75% of clients at residential rehab centers for drug addiction and alcoholism are smokers. While it is a fact that nicotine is an addictive substance and clients in any sort of treatment for addiction should endeavor to be abstinent from all addictive substances, this can introduce problems that make enforcing a non-smoking facility outweigh the benefits of such restrictions. Someone who is addicted to a substance as life threatening as drugs and alcohol might not agree to get help if they must quit smoking cigarettes, so many rehab centers in Ammon allow smoking with some limitations, restrictions and in designated areas.
Some rehab centers permit clients to smoke anywhere, as long as it is outdoors for example. Some facilities have a designated smoking area, and this is the only area that clients are allowed to smoke in. Because nicotine is addictive, even rehab centers that allow smoking commonly introduce alternatives to smoking if the client wants to quit, such as nicotine patches, nicotine gum and prescriptions. There are also programs that allow smoking in designated areas, but educate clients on the health risks associated with smoking by integrating this into their program either by way of direct education or by providing educational literature for clients to examine. In programs which permit smoking in designated areas this is sometimes only allowed for clients, whereas staff are sometimes restricted from smoking at the center or are encouraged to not smoke in front of clients.
Publicly funded drug rehabilitation facilities are obligated by the rules and restrictions in regards to smoking that are imposed by state and federal agencies which oversee and administer these programs. Private rehabilitation facilities have a bit more leeway and don't have as many rules imposed on them, so may be more likely to provide designated areas for smoking.
