It is a known fact that individuals in rehabilitation for drug and alcohol addiction are more likely to be smokers, 75 percent in fact. With that being said very few centers handle the problem as a primary addiction, despite the fact that helping people quit smoking tobacco during treatment is associated with a 25 percent higher chance the individual will stay sober from drugs and alcohol. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehab facilities in Hazleton that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also offer nicotine addiction treatment.
While total bans on smoking are not normal, an increasing number of facilities are starting to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make rehabs completely smoke free. In so doing, 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. Enforcing a ban on smoking may make hesitant potential clients who smoke starting treatment. In the meantime, it will help those who do choose a no smoking substance abuse rehab program be better able to recover in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
