Smoking Allowed in Designated Area - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - St. Clairsville, OH.

It is estimated that around 75% of clients at residential treatment centers for drug addiction and alcoholism are smokers. While it is a fact that nicotine is an addictive substance and people in rehab for addiction should endeavor to be abstinent from all addictive substances, this can present problems that make enforcing a smoking ban outweigh the advantages of this restriction. A person who is addicted to a substance as life threatening as drugs and alcohol might not agree to go to treatment if they must quit smoking cigarettes, so therefore, many facilities in St. Clairsville allow smoking with certain limitations, restrictions and in designated areas.

Some rehab centers permit clients to smoke anywhere, provides it is outdoors for instance. Some facilities have a designated smoking area, and this is the only place that clients can smoke. Due to the fact that nicotine is an addictive substance, even treatment programs that have a designated area and allow smoking usually provide alternatives to smoking if the client wants to quit, such as nicotine patches, nicotine gum and prescriptions. There are also rehab centers 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 one on one counseling or by providing educational literature for clients to examine. In facilities which allow smoking in designated areas this is typically only authorized for clients, and staff are sometimes restricted from smoking at the center or are asked to not smoke in front of clients.

Publicly funded drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs are bound 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 centers have a little more leeway and don't have as many restrictions imposed on them, so they be more likely to offer designated areas for smoking.
