It is a known fact that clients in treatment for alcohol and/or drug addiction are more likely to be smokers, 75% in fact. With that being said very few programs handle the situation as a primary addiction, despite the fact that helping people stop smoking during rehab is associated with a 25% higher possibility the individual will stay sober from alcohol and drugs. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment facilities in Ashford that implement a smoking ban and most of them also offer treatment for nicotine addiction.
While complete bans on smoking are not the norm, an increasing number of facilities are actually beginning to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make facilities completely smoke-free environments. 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 complete smoking ban may deter potential clients who smoke starting treatment. In the meantime, it will help those who do choose a no smoking drug and alcohol addiction rehab facility be better able to get sober in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
