Smoking Not Allowed - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Independence, OR.

It is a fact that individuals in treatment for substance abuse are much more likely to smoke tobacco, 75 percent in fact. With that being said very few programs address the situation as a primary addiction, even though the fact that helping clients quit smoking during rehab is associated with a 25 percent higher possibility the individual will remain free from substance abuse. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment programs in Independence that implement a smoking ban and most of them also provide nicotine addiction treatment.

While complete bans on smoking are definitely not the norm, more and more rehabs are beginning to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make facilities completely smoke-free environments. In so doing, these mandates avoid 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 make hesitant potential clients who smoke starting treatment. In the meantime, it will help those who do choose a smoking not allowed substance abuse rehab center be better able to recover in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
