It is a fact that people in treatment for alcohol and/or drug addiction are more likely to be smokers, 75 percent in fact. As such very few facilities address the problem as a primary addiction, despite the fact that helping clients stop smoking during treatment is associated with a 25 percent greater possibility they will remain sober from drugs and alcohol. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment programs in White Pine that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also offer treatment for nicotine addiction.
While complete smoking bans are definitely not the norm, more and more facilities are actually starting to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make facilities completely smoke-free environments. In so doing, they 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 smoking ban may deter 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 facility be better able to get sober in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
