It is a known fact that people in treatment for substance abuse are much more likely to smoke tobacco, 75 percent in fact. With that being said few programs handle the situation as a primary addiction, despite the fact that helping clients stop smoking while in rehab is associated with a 25% higher possibility they will stay sober from alcohol and drugs. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehab facilities in Queensbury that implement a smoking ban and most of them also provide nicotine addiction treatment.
While complete bans on smoking are definitely not the norm, more and more facilities are actually beginning to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make rehabs completely smoke free. In doing so, these mandates 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 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 substance abuse rehab center be better able to get sober in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
