It is a fact that individuals in rehab for substance abuse are much more likely to smoke tobacco, 75% in fact. As such very few programs address the situation as a main addiction, despite the fact that helping clients quit smoking while in rehab is associated with a 25 percent higher possibility the individual will stay sober from alcohol and drugs. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehab programs in Searsport that implement a smoking ban and most of them also provide treatment for nicotine addiction.
While complete smoking bans are definitely not the norm, more and more centers are actually starting to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make rehabs completely smoke free. In doing so, these mandates bypass 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 ban on smoking may deter 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 facility be better able to recover in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
