Smoking Not Allowed - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Pittsfield, ME.

It is a known fact that individuals in rehabilitation for substance abuse are more likely to be smokers, 75 percent in fact. With that being said few programs address the situation as a main addiction, even though the fact that helping clients stop smoking during rehab is associated with a 25 percent higher possibility they will remain sober from alcohol and drugs. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehabilitation programs in Pittsfield that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also offer treatment for nicotine addiction.

While total smoking bans are definitely not the norm, more and more facilities are actually starting to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make rehabs completely smoke-free environments. In doing so, these mandates bypass the need to develop and enforce facility policies that are already legally in place and enforced legally by state and local agencies. Implementing a complete smoking ban may make hesitant potential clients who smoke starting treatment. At the same time it will help those who do choose a smoking not allowed alcohol and/or drug addiction rehab program be better able to recover in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
