It is a known fact that individuals in treatment for alcohol and/or drug addiction are more likely to be smokers, 75 percent in fact. As such very few facilities handle the situation as a main addiction, despite the fact that helping individuals quit smoking tobacco 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 Elko that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also provide treatment for nicotine addiction.
While total bans on smoking are definitely not normal, an increasing number of programs are starting to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make rehabs completely smoke free. In doing so, they bypass the need to develop and enforce facility policies that are already legally in place and enforced legally by state and local agencies. Enforcing a smoking ban may deter potential clients who smoke starting treatment. In the meantime, it will help those who do choose a no smoking drug and alcohol addiction rehab center be better able to recover in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
