Smoking Allowed in Designated Area - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Massillon, OH.

It is estimated that around 75% of clients at residential treatment facilities for drug and alcohol addiction are smokers. While it is a fact that nicotine is an addictive substance and people in rehab for addiction should strive to be abstinent from all addictive substances, this can present problems that make enforcing a non-smoking facility outweigh the advantages of such restrictions. A person who is addicted to a substance as life threatening as drugs and alcohol might not get help if they have to quit smoking cigarettes, so many programs in Massillon allow smoking with certain limitations, restrictions and in designated areas.

Some programs permit clients to smoke anywhere, provides it is outdoors for example. Some programs have a designated smoking area, which is the only area that clients can smoke. Due to the fact that nicotine is an addictive substance, even treatment facilities that have a designated area and allow smoking usually introduce alternatives to smoking if the client would like to consider this as an option, such as nicotine patches, nicotine gum and prescriptions. There are also programs which permit smoking in designated areas, but educate clients on the health risks associated with smoking by integrating this into their program either by way of direct education or by providing informational literature for clients to consider. In rehab centers which allow smoking in designated areas this is typically only approved for clients, and staff are often restricted from smoking at the center or are encouraged to not smoke in front of clients.

Publicly funded drug rehab facilities are bound by the rules and restrictions in regards to smoking that are enforced by state and federal agencies which oversee and administer these programs. Private rehab centers have a little more leeway and don't have as many restrictions imposed on them, so may be more likely to provide designated areas for smoking.
