It is a known fact that people in treatment for substance abuse are more likely to be smokers, 75% in fact. As such few programs handle the problem as a primary addiction, despite the fact that helping clients quit smoking during rehab is associated with a 25 percent higher chance the individual will stay free from substance abuse. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehab programs in Ridgecrest that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also provide nicotine addiction treatment.
While complete bans on smoking are definitely not normal, more and more facilities are actually beginning to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make rehabs completely smoke free. 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. Implementing a complete smoking ban may make hesitant 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 drug and addiction free environment.
