It is a fact that clients in rehab for alcohol and/or drug addiction are more likely to smoke tobacco, 75% in fact. As such few programs address the problem as a main addiction, even though the fact that helping individuals stop smoking during treatment is associated with a 25 percent greater possibility the client will remain sober from drugs and alcohol. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment programs in Swanton that implement a smoking ban and most of them also provide nicotine addiction treatment.
While complete bans on smoking are definitely not normal, more and more rehabs are beginning to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make facilities completely smoke-free environments. 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. Implementing a smoking ban may deter 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.
