It is a known fact that people in treatment for drug and alcohol addiction are much more likely to be smokers, 75% in fact. With that being said very few facilities address the problem as a primary addiction, despite the fact that helping clients quit smoking tobacco while in treatment is associated with a 25 percent greater possibility the individual will remain sober from drugs and alcohol. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehab facilities in Saratoga Springs that implement a smoking ban and most of them also offer treatment for nicotine addiction.
While complete smoking bans are definitely not normal, more and more rehabs are actually beginning to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make rehabs completely smoke-free environments. In doing so, these mandates bypass 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 deter potential clients who smoke starting treatment. At the same time it will help those who do choose a no smoking substance abuse rehab facility be better able to get sober in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
