It is a known fact that individuals in rehab for drug and alcohol addiction are more likely to smoke tobacco, 75% in fact. As such few programs handle the situation as a primary addiction, even though the fact that helping people stop smoking during treatment is associated with a 25% higher chance the client will stay sober from alcohol and drugs. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehab centers in Endicott that implement a smoking ban and most of them also offer nicotine addiction treatment.
While complete smoking bans are definitely not the norm, more and more programs are beginning to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make facilities completely smoke free. In so doing, 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 smoking ban may deter potential clients who smoke starting treatment. At the same time it will help those who do choose a no smoking alcohol and/or drug addiction rehab program be better able to get sober in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
