Smoking Allowed in Designated Area - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Perryville, MO.

It is estimated that around 75% of clients at residential rehabilitation facilities for drug addiction and alcoholism are smokers. While it is true that nicotine is an addictive substance and clients in rehab for addiction should endeavor to be free from all addictive substances, this can introduce problems that make enforcing a non-smoking facility outweigh the advantages of such restrictions. Someone who is addicted to a substance as life threatening as drugs and alcohol might not get help if they must quit smoking cigarettes, so therefore, many rehab centers in Perryville allow smoking with some limitations, restrictions and in designated areas of their facility.

Some rehab centers allow clients to smoke anywhere, provides it is outdoors for instance. Some programs have a designated smoking area, which is the only area that clients can smoke. Due to the fact that nicotine is addictive, even treatment programs that have a designated area and allow smoking usually offer alternatives to smoking if the client wants to quit, such as nicotine patches, nicotine gum and prescriptions. There are also programs that allow smoking in designated areas, but provide education on the health risks associated with smoking by integrating this into their program either by way of direct education or by offering educational literature for clients to examine. In programs which allow smoking in designated areas this is typically 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 addiction rehabilitation programs are obligated by the rules and restrictions in regards to smoking that are enforced by state and federal agencies which oversee and administer these programs. Private treatment facilities have a bit more tolerance and don't have as many rules and restrictions imposed on them, so they be more likely to provide designated areas for smoking.
