It is a known fact that individuals in treatment for drug and alcohol addiction are much more likely to smoke tobacco, 75% in fact. As such few facilities handle the situation as a primary addiction, even though the fact that helping clients stop smoking tobacco while in rehab is associated with a 25 percent greater possibility they will stay sober from drugs and alcohol. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment facilities in Dorset that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also offer treatment for nicotine addiction.
While complete 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 attempt to make rehabs completely smoke-free environments. In so doing, 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 complete ban on smoking 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.
