Smoking Not Allowed - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Merritt, NC.

It is a known fact that individuals in rehabilitation for drug and alcohol addiction are more likely to smoke tobacco, 75% in fact. As such few centers address the situation as a primary addiction, despite the fact that helping people stop smoking tobacco during rehab is associated with a 25 percent greater chance they will stay free from substance abuse. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment facilities in Merritt that implement a smoking ban and most of them also provide treatment for nicotine addiction.

While complete smoking bans are not the norm, an increasing number of centers are actually starting to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make rehabs completely smoke free. In doing so, these mandates 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 ban on smoking may deter potential clients who smoke starting treatment. At the same time it will help those who do choose a no smoking alcohol and/or drug addiction rehab program be better able to recover in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
