It is a known fact that individuals in rehabilitation for substance abuse are much more likely to be smokers, 75 percent in fact. As such very few centers handle the problem as a primary addiction, even though the fact that helping clients quit smoking tobacco while in rehab is associated with a 25 percent greater chance the individual will stay sober from alcohol and drugs. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehabilitation facilities in Aurora that implement a smoking ban and most of them also offer treatment for nicotine addiction.
While total smoking bans are definitely not normal, more and more rehabs are actually starting to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make rehabs completely smoke free. In so doing, they bypass the need to develop and implement facility policies that are already legally in place and enforced legally by state and local agencies. Implementing a 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 facility be better able to recover in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
