It is a known fact that individuals in rehab for substance abuse are much more likely to smoke tobacco, 75% in fact. As such very few facilities address the problem as a primary addiction, even though the fact that helping clients stop smoking tobacco during rehab is associated with a 25 percent higher possibility the individual will stay sober from alcohol and drugs. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment facilities in St. Johnsbury that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also provide treatment for nicotine addiction.
While complete bans on smoking are not normal, more and more facilities are actually beginning to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make facilities completely smoke-free environments. In doing so, they 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 complete smoking ban may deter potential clients who smoke starting treatment. At the same time it will help those who do choose a smoking not allowed substance abuse rehab program be better able to get sober in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
