It is a fact that individuals in treatment for substance abuse are much more likely to be smokers, 75 percent in fact. As such very few facilities handle the problem as a primary addiction, despite the fact that helping individuals stop smoking tobacco during treatment is associated with a 25% greater chance the individual will remain sober from drugs and alcohol. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehab programs in Hillside that implement a smoking ban and most of them also offer nicotine addiction treatment.
While complete smoking bans are not the norm, more and more centers are beginning to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make facilities completely smoke-free environments. 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 complete smoking ban may deter potential clients who smoke starting treatment. In the meantime, it will help those who do choose a no smoking substance abuse rehab program be better able to get sober in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
