It is a known fact that people in rehab for alcohol and/or drug addiction are much more likely to be smokers, 75% in fact. As such few facilities handle the problem as a primary addiction, despite the fact that helping individuals stop smoking while in rehab is associated with a 25% greater possibility they will stay free from substance abuse. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehabilitation facilities in Westwood that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also offer treatment for nicotine addiction.
While complete bans on smoking are not the norm, more and more centers are starting to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make facilities completely smoke free. 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 ban on smoking may make hesitant potential clients who smoke starting treatment. At the same time it will help those who do choose a no smoking drug and alcohol addiction rehab center be better able to get sober in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
