It is a fact that people in treatment for substance abuse are much more likely to be smokers, 75% in fact. With that being said very few programs address the situation as a primary addiction, even though the fact that helping people stop smoking tobacco while in rehab is associated with a 25 percent greater chance they will remain sober from alcohol and drugs. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment programs in Smithtown that implement a smoking ban and most of them also offer nicotine addiction treatment.
While total smoking bans are not the norm, more and more programs are starting 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 bypass the need to develop and enforce facility policies that are already legally in place and enforced legally by state and local agencies. Implementing a smoking ban may make hesitant potential clients who smoke starting treatment. In the meantime, it will help those who do choose a smoking not allowed alcohol and/or drug addiction rehab program be better able to get sober in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
