Smoking Not Allowed - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Greenhurst, NY.

It is a fact that individuals in treatment for substance abuse are much more likely to smoke tobacco, 75% in fact. With that being said few programs handle the situation as a primary addiction, despite the fact that helping clients stop smoking during treatment is associated with a 25 percent higher chance the individual will remain sober from drugs and alcohol. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment programs in Greenhurst that implement a smoking ban and most of them also provide treatment for nicotine addiction.

While complete bans on smoking are definitely not the norm, more and more facilities are beginning to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make facilities completely smoke-free environments. In so doing, they avoid the need to develop and enforce 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 recover in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
