It is a fact that clients in rehab for drug and alcohol addiction are more likely to be smokers, 75 percent in fact. As such few facilities handle the problem as a primary addiction, despite the fact that helping individuals quit smoking tobacco during treatment is associated with a 25 percent higher possibility the individual will remain sober from alcohol and drugs. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment centers in Antioch that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also provide treatment for nicotine addiction.
While total smoking bans are definitely not the norm, an increasing number of rehabs are actually starting to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make rehabs completely smoke free. In doing so, these mandates bypass the need to develop and enforce facility policies that are already legally in place and enforced legally by state and local agencies. Implementing a ban on smoking may deter potential clients who smoke starting treatment. In the meantime, it will help those who do choose a no smoking drug and alcohol addiction rehab facility be better able to get sober in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
