It is a known fact that people in treatment for alcohol and/or drug addiction are more likely to smoke tobacco, 75 percent in fact. With that being said very few programs address the situation as a primary addiction, despite the fact that helping individuals stop smoking tobacco while in treatment is associated with a 25 percent greater possibility the client will stay sober from drugs and alcohol. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehab programs in Hickory Ridge 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 rehabs 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, they 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 smoking not allowed substance abuse rehab center be better able to get sober in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
