Smoking Not Allowed - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Andover, NY.

It is a fact that people in treatment for drug and alcohol addiction are more likely to smoke tobacco, 75% in fact. As such few programs address the situation as a primary addiction, even though the fact that helping clients stop smoking during treatment is associated with a 25% higher chance they will stay sober from alcohol and drugs. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment facilities in Andover that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also offer treatment for nicotine addiction.

While total smoking bans are definitely not the norm, an increasing number of facilities are starting to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make facilities completely smoke-free environments. In doing so, they avoid 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 alcohol and/or drug addiction rehab facility be better able to recover in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
