It is a known fact that individuals in treatment for alcohol and/or drug addiction are more likely to smoke tobacco, 75% in fact. With that being said very few centers handle the situation as a primary addiction, even though the fact that helping people stop smoking tobacco while in rehab is associated with a 25% higher chance they will remain sober from drugs and alcohol. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment centers in Fairfield that implement a smoking ban and most of them also provide nicotine addiction treatment.
While complete smoking bans are definitely not normal, more and more 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. In doing so, they avoid the need to develop and enforce facility policies that are already legally in place and enforced legally by state and local agencies. Implementing a smoking ban may make hesitant potential clients who smoke starting treatment. At the same time it will help those who do choose a no smoking substance abuse rehab program be better able to recover in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
