It is a fact that people in treatment for drug and alcohol addiction are much more likely to be smokers, 75% in fact. With that being said few programs address the situation as a primary addiction, despite the fact that helping people stop smoking tobacco during rehab is associated with a 25% higher possibility the client will remain free from substance abuse. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment programs in Edwardsville that implement a smoking ban and most of them also provide nicotine addiction treatment.
While complete smoking bans are not the norm, more and more programs are starting to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make facilities completely smoke free. 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. Enforcing a complete 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 addiction and drug free environment.
