It is a fact that individuals in rehab for drug and alcohol 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 quit smoking tobacco while in rehab is associated with a 25 percent higher possibility the client will remain sober from alcohol and drugs. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment facilities in Van Nuys that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also provide treatment for nicotine addiction.
While total smoking bans are not the norm, an increasing number of rehabs are beginning to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make rehabs completely smoke free. In doing so, these mandates 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 ban on smoking may make hesitant potential clients who smoke starting treatment. At the same time it will help those who do choose a smoking not allowed drug and alcohol addiction rehab facility be better able to get sober in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
