It is a known fact that clients in rehab for alcohol and/or drug addiction are much more likely to be smokers, 75% in fact. With that being said few programs handle the situation as a main addiction, even though the fact that helping clients stop smoking tobacco during treatment is associated with a 25% greater chance they will remain sober from drugs and alcohol. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehab programs in Lopez Island that implement a smoking ban and most of them also provide nicotine addiction treatment.
While total bans on smoking are definitely not normal, more and more facilities are starting to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make rehabs completely smoke-free environments. In doing so, they 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 smoking ban may deter potential clients who smoke starting treatment. In the meantime, it will help those who do choose a smoking not allowed substance abuse rehab facility be better able to get sober in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
