Smoking Not Allowed - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Thorndike, ME.

It is a fact that people in treatment for drug and alcohol addiction are much more likely to be smokers, 75% in fact. As such few facilities address the problem as a primary addiction, despite the fact that helping people stop smoking while in treatment is associated with a 25 percent greater possibility they will remain sober from alcohol and drugs. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehab centers in Thorndike that implement a smoking ban and most of them also offer nicotine addiction treatment.

While complete bans on smoking are not the norm, an increasing number of centers are beginning to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make rehabs completely smoke free. 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 ban on smoking may make hesitant potential clients who smoke starting treatment. In the meantime, it will help those who do choose a no smoking alcohol and/or drug addiction rehab center be better able to recover in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
