It is a known fact that clients in rehab for substance abuse are much more likely to smoke tobacco, 75% in fact. As such few programs address the problem as a primary addiction, despite the fact that helping clients stop smoking tobacco while in rehab is associated with a 25% higher possibility they will remain free from substance abuse. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment programs in Shamokin that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also provide treatment for nicotine addiction.
While total smoking bans are definitely not normal, an increasing number of centers are actually starting to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make rehabs completely smoke free. In doing so, 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. Implementing a complete smoking ban may make hesitant potential clients who smoke starting treatment. In the meantime, it will help those who do choose a no smoking alcohol and/or drug addiction rehab program be better able to recover in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
