It is a fact that individuals in rehabilitation for drug and alcohol addiction are more likely to smoke tobacco, 75 percent in fact. As such few programs handle the situation as a primary addiction, despite the fact that helping people quit smoking during treatment is associated with a 25% higher possibility the individual will stay sober from drugs and alcohol. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehabilitation programs in Parkersburg that implement a smoking ban and most of them also offer nicotine addiction treatment.
While complete bans on smoking are not normal, an increasing number of centers are actually starting to implement 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. Enforcing a ban on smoking may deter potential clients who smoke starting treatment. In the meantime, it will help those who do choose a smoking not allowed alcohol and/or drug addiction rehab center be better able to get sober in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
