Smoking Not Allowed - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Richmond, VT.

It is a known fact that people in rehabilitation for substance abuse are much more likely to be smokers, 75% in fact. With that being said very few programs address the situation as a main addiction, even though the fact that helping individuals quit smoking tobacco during treatment is associated with a 25 percent higher possibility they will stay free from substance abuse. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehabilitation programs in Richmond that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also provide nicotine addiction treatment.

While complete bans on smoking are not the norm, an increasing number of facilities are actually starting to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make facilities 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. Enforcing a ban on smoking may deter potential clients who smoke starting treatment. In the meantime, it will help those who do choose a no smoking substance abuse rehab center be better able to recover in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
