It is a fact that individuals in treatment for alcohol and/or drug addiction are more likely to smoke tobacco, 75% in fact. As such very few facilities address the problem as a main addiction, despite the fact that helping people quit smoking while in treatment is associated with a 25 percent greater possibility they will remain sober from alcohol and drugs. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehabilitation programs in Summit that implement 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 starting to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make facilities completely smoke free. In doing so, they 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. In the meantime, it will help those who do choose a no smoking substance abuse rehab facility be better able to get sober in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
