It is a known fact that clients in rehabilitation for alcohol and/or drug addiction are more likely to smoke tobacco, 75 percent in fact. As such few facilities address the problem as a main addiction, despite the fact that helping clients stop smoking during rehab is associated with a 25% greater possibility the individual will stay sober from alcohol and drugs. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment programs in Mount Pocono that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also provide treatment for nicotine addiction.
While complete bans on smoking are not the norm, an increasing number of programs are actually beginning to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make facilities completely smoke free. In doing so, they bypass the need to develop and implement facility policies that are already legally in place and enforced legally by state and local agencies. Implementing a complete ban on smoking may make hesitant potential clients who smoke starting treatment. At the same time it will help those who do choose a no smoking substance abuse rehab program be better able to get sober in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
