It is a fact that clients in rehab for alcohol and/or drug addiction are more likely to be smokers, 75% in fact. As such few facilities handle the problem as a primary addiction, even though the fact that helping individuals stop smoking tobacco during rehab is associated with a 25 percent higher possibility the client will remain sober from alcohol and drugs. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment facilities in Bonney Lake that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also offer treatment for nicotine addiction.
While total bans on smoking are not the norm, an increasing number of programs are actually starting to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make facilities completely smoke-free environments. In doing so, these mandates bypass the need to develop and implement facility policies that are already legally in place and enforced legally by state and local agencies. Enforcing a ban on smoking may make hesitant 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 get sober in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
