Smoking Allowed in Designated Area - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Crawfordville, FL.

It is estimated that around 75% of clients at residential treatment programs for drug addiction and alcoholism are smokers. While it is a fact that nicotine is an addictive substance and clients in any sort of treatment for addiction should strive to be abstinent from all addictive substances, this can introduce problems that make enforcing a smoking ban outweigh the benefits of such restrictions. Someone who is addicted to a substance as life threatening as drugs and alcohol might not get help if they have to quit smoking cigarettes, so many rehab centers in Crawfordville allow smoking with some limitations, restrictions and in designated areas.

Some facilities permit clients to smoke anywhere, provides it is outdoors for instance. Some rehab centers have a designated smoking area, and this is the only area that clients can smoke. Due to the fact that nicotine is addictive, even rehab facilities that allow smoking typically introduce alternatives to smoking if the client would like to consider this as an option, such as nicotine replacement gum, patches and prescriptions. There are also programs which allow smoking in designated areas, but provide education on the health risks associated with smoking by including this into their program either by way of direct education or by offering informational literature for clients to consider. In facilities which permit smoking in designated areas this is typically only approved for clients, and staff are sometimes banned from smoking at the center or are encouraged to not smoke in front of clients.

Publicly funded drug and alcohol rehab programs are bound by the rules and restrictions in regards to smoking that are imposed by state and federal agencies which oversee and administer these programs. Private treatment facilities have a bit more tolerance and don't have as many rules and restrictions imposed on them, so they be more likely to provide designated areas for smoking.
