It is a fact that individuals in rehabilitation for substance abuse are more likely to smoke tobacco, 75 percent in fact. As such very few centers address the problem as a primary addiction, even though the fact that helping people stop smoking while in treatment is associated with a 25 percent higher chance the individual will stay sober from drugs and alcohol. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehabilitation programs in Sitka that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also provide nicotine addiction treatment.
While total bans on smoking are not the norm, an increasing number of centers are beginning to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make facilities completely smoke-free environments. In so doing, these mandates 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 make hesitant potential clients who smoke starting treatment. In the meantime, it will help those who do choose a smoking not allowed alcohol and/or drug addiction rehab center be better able to recover in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
