It is a known fact that clients in treatment for alcohol and/or drug addiction are much more likely to smoke tobacco, 75 percent in fact. As such very few centers address the situation as a main addiction, even though the fact that helping individuals stop smoking during rehab is associated with a 25% higher chance the individual will stay free from substance abuse. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehabilitation programs in Cope that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also offer nicotine addiction treatment.
While total smoking bans are not normal, more and more rehabs are starting to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make rehabs completely smoke free. In so doing, 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. At the same time it will help those who do choose a no smoking substance abuse rehab program be better able to get sober in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
