It is a known fact that clients in rehabilitation for substance abuse are much more likely to smoke tobacco, 75% in fact. With that being said very few facilities address the problem as a primary addiction, even though the fact that helping individuals quit smoking tobacco during rehab is associated with a 25% higher possibility they will remain sober from drugs and alcohol. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment facilities in Waterbury Center that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also provide nicotine addiction treatment.
While complete bans on smoking are definitely not normal, an increasing number of programs are starting to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make rehabs completely smoke-free environments. In doing so, these mandates avoid the need to develop and implement facility policies that are already legally in place and enforced legally by state and local agencies. Implementing 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 substance abuse rehab program be better able to recover in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
