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 addicting and clients in any sort of treatment for addiction should strive to be free from all addictive substances, this can introduce problems that make enforcing a smoking ban outweigh the benefits of such restrictions. A person who is addicted to a substance as life threatening as drugs and alcohol might not get help if they must quit smoking cigarettes, so many facilities in Miamitown allow smoking with some limitations, restrictions and in designated areas.
Some facilities allow clients to smoke anywhere, so long as it is outside for example. Some rehab centers have a designated smoking area, and this is the only place that clients can smoke. Because nicotine is an addictive substance, even rehab centers that have a designated area and allow smoking commonly introduce alternatives to smoking if the client wants to quit, such as nicotine patches, nicotine gum and prescriptions. There are also programs that allow smoking in designated areas, but provide education on the health risks associated with smoking by integrating this into their program either by way of direct education or by offering educational literature for clients to examine. In rehab centers which permit smoking in designated areas this is sometimes only authorized for clients, and staff are sometimes banned from smoking at the center or are encouraged to not smoke in front of clients.
Publicly funded addiction rehabilitation centers are obligated by the rules and restrictions in regards to smoking that are imposed by state and federal agencies which oversee and administer these programs. Private rehab facilities have a bit more leeway and don't have as many rules imposed on them, so may be more likely to offer designated areas for smoking.
