Smoking Not Allowed - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Cheltenham, MD.

It is a known fact that clients in rehab for substance abuse are more likely to smoke tobacco, 75% in fact. As such very few programs handle the situation as a primary addiction, despite the fact that helping individuals stop smoking during treatment is associated with a 25% greater possibility they will remain free from substance abuse. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehab facilities in Cheltenham that implement a smoking ban and most of them also provide treatment for nicotine addiction.

While complete bans on smoking are definitely not normal, an increasing number of programs are starting to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make rehabs completely smoke free. In doing so, these mandates avoid 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. At the same time it will help those who do choose a no smoking alcohol and/or drug addiction rehab program be better able to recover in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
