It is a known fact that clients in rehabilitation for drug and alcohol addiction are much more likely to smoke tobacco, 75% in fact. As such very few centers address the situation as a primary addiction, despite the fact that helping individuals quit smoking while in treatment is associated with a 25% greater chance the individual will stay sober from alcohol and drugs. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment programs in West Point that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also offer nicotine addiction treatment.
While total smoking bans are definitely not normal, more and more rehabs are starting to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make facilities completely smoke-free environments. In so doing, these mandates 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 complete ban on smoking may make hesitant potential clients who smoke starting treatment. At the same time it will help those who do choose a smoking not allowed substance abuse rehab facility be better able to recover in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
