Even though smoking is associated with substance abuse in many ways, some programs believe that enforcing total cessation during treatment can cause bigger problems than it is worth by maintaining a smoking ban. Implementing a ban on smoking can cause earlier than anticipated departure from treatment, or worse a hesitancy to even start rehab. Some studies even present that allowing people smoking privileges while in treatment, particularly in the early stages of recovery, is often a way for individuals to bond with their peers and the rehab staff that they are working with.
Smoking allowed without restriction alcohol and drug treatment centers in Bethlehem take into account that some people in recovery are non-smokers so there are some restrictions and guidelines that are enforced and followed by individuals who smoke while they are in treatment. Even most smokers don't want to be in a place where smoking is constantly permitted and so most centers have specific smoking areas so that people who has not decided to quit smoking can smoke freely and without judgment. These designated smoking areas are almost always outside and a few programs which allow smoking inside. Most drug treatment facilities also provide services for clients who would like to try to quit smoking while in rehab.
