Smoking Not Allowed - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Pearlington, MS.

It is a known fact that clients in treatment for alcohol and/or drug addiction are much more likely to smoke tobacco, 75 percent in fact. As such few programs address the problem as a primary addiction, despite the fact that helping people quit smoking while in treatment is associated with a 25% higher possibility the individual will remain sober from drugs and alcohol. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment programs in Pearlington that implement a smoking ban and most of them also offer nicotine addiction treatment.

While complete bans on smoking are definitely not normal, an increasing number of programs are actually starting to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make rehabs completely smoke-free environments. In so doing, they 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 smoking ban may deter potential clients who smoke starting treatment. In the meantime, it will help those who do choose a smoking not allowed substance abuse rehab program be better able to get sober in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
