It is a known fact that individuals in treatment for substance abuse are more likely to smoke tobacco, 75% in fact. As such few programs handle the problem as a primary addiction, even though the fact that helping individuals quit smoking tobacco during treatment is associated with a 25% higher possibility the individual will stay sober from alcohol and drugs. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment programs in Stonington that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also provide nicotine addiction treatment.
While complete bans on smoking are not normal, an increasing number of facilities are starting to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make rehabs completely smoke-free environments. In so doing, they 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 complete smoking ban may deter potential clients who smoke starting treatment. In the meantime, it will help those who do choose a smoking not allowed substance abuse rehab facility be better able to get sober in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
