It is a fact that clients in rehab for drug and alcohol addiction are much more likely to smoke tobacco, 75% in fact. As such very few centers address the situation as a primary addiction, despite the fact that helping individuals stop smoking during rehab is associated with a 25 percent greater chance the client will remain sober from drugs and alcohol. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehabilitation centers in Columbus that implement a smoking ban and most of them also offer nicotine addiction treatment.
While complete bans on smoking are definitely not the norm, more and more centers are actually beginning to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make facilities completely smoke-free environments. 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 complete ban on smoking may make hesitant potential clients who smoke starting treatment. In the meantime, it will help those who do choose a no smoking drug and alcohol addiction rehab program be better able to get sober in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
