It is a known fact that clients in rehab for drug and alcohol addiction are more likely to smoke tobacco, 75 percent in fact. With that being said very few facilities handle the situation as a primary addiction, despite the fact that helping clients stop smoking while in treatment is associated with a 25 percent higher possibility they will stay sober from drugs and alcohol. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehabilitation centers in Erie that implement a smoking ban and most of them also provide treatment for nicotine addiction.
While complete bans on smoking are not normal, more and more centers are beginning 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. Implementing a smoking ban 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 facility be better able to recover in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
