It is a known fact that clients in rehabilitation for substance abuse are more likely to be smokers, 75% in fact. As such few centers handle the problem as a main addiction, even though the fact that helping people quit smoking tobacco during treatment is associated with a 25 percent higher chance they will stay sober from alcohol and drugs. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehab centers in Auburn that implement a smoking ban and most of them also offer nicotine addiction treatment.
While total bans on smoking are not the norm, an increasing number of programs are actually beginning to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make facilities completely smoke free. In doing so, 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 smoking ban 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 get sober in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
