It is a known fact that people in rehab for substance abuse are more likely to be smokers, 75% in fact. As such few facilities address the situation as a main addiction, even though the fact that helping clients quit smoking during rehab is associated with a 25 percent higher possibility the client will remain sober from alcohol and drugs. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment facilities in Amsterdam that implement a smoking ban and most of them also provide nicotine addiction treatment.
While complete smoking bans are not the norm, more and more rehabs are beginning to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make facilities completely smoke free. In so doing, these mandates avoid the need to develop and implement 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. At the same time it will help those who do choose a smoking not allowed drug and alcohol addiction rehab facility be better able to recover in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
