It is estimated that approximately 75% of clients at residential rehab facilities for drug and alcohol addiction are smokers. While it is true that nicotine is addicting and people in rehab for addiction should strive to be abstinent from all addictive substances, this can introduce problems that make enforcing a smoking ban outweigh the advantages of this restriction. Someone who is addicted to a substance that could very well kill them immediately might not get help if they have to quit smoking cigarettes, so therefore, many programs in Nett Lake allow smoking with some restrictions, limitations and in designated areas.
Some rehab centers allow clients to smoke anywhere, provides it is outside for example. Some rehab centers have a designated smoking area, which is the only area that clients are allowed to smoke in. Due to the fact that nicotine is addictive, even rehab facilities that have a designated area and allow smoking typically offer alternatives to smoking if the client wants to quit, such as nicotine replacement gum, patches and prescriptions. There are also facilities which allow smoking in designated areas, but educate clients on the health risks associated with smoking by incorporating this into their program either by way of direct education or by offering informational literature for clients to examine. In rehab centers which allow smoking in designated areas this is sometimes only authorized for clients, whereas staff are often banned from smoking at the facility or are encouraged to not smoke in front of clients.
Publicly funded substance abuse rehabilitation programs are bound by the rules and restrictions in regards to smoking that are enforced by state and federal agencies which oversee and administer these programs. Private rehab facilities have a bit more leeway and don't have as many rules imposed on them, so they be more likely to provide designated areas for smoking.
