It is a known fact that individuals in rehab for alcohol and/or drug addiction are much more likely to be smokers, 75% in fact. As such few centers address the problem as a main addiction, despite the fact that helping clients stop smoking while in rehab is associated with a 25 percent higher possibility the client will stay sober from drugs and alcohol. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehabilitation facilities in Cochise that implement a smoking ban and most of them also offer treatment for nicotine addiction.
While total smoking bans are not the norm, an increasing number of centers are beginning to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make rehabs 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. Enforcing a complete ban on smoking 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 recover in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
