It is a known fact that individuals in rehab for alcohol and/or drug addiction are much more likely to be smokers, 75 percent in fact. With that being said very few facilities address the situation as a primary addiction, even though the fact that helping individuals quit smoking while in rehab is associated with a 25% higher possibility they will remain sober from drugs and alcohol. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehabilitation centers in Altamont that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also provide nicotine addiction treatment.
While total bans on smoking are definitely not the norm, an increasing number of facilities are actually beginning to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make facilities completely smoke-free environments. In doing so, they avoid the need to develop and enforce facility policies that are already legally in place and enforced legally by state and local agencies. Enforcing a ban on smoking may deter potential clients who smoke starting treatment. In the meantime, it will help those who do choose a no smoking substance abuse rehab center be better able to get sober in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
