It is a fact that individuals in rehabilitation for drug and alcohol addiction are more likely to smoke tobacco, 75% in fact. As such very few centers handle the situation as a main addiction, even though the fact that helping clients stop smoking tobacco while in rehab is associated with a 25 percent higher chance the individual will stay free from substance abuse. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment facilities in St. Johns that implement a smoking ban and most of them also provide treatment for nicotine addiction.
While complete bans on smoking are not the norm, more and more rehabs are actually beginning to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make rehabs completely smoke free. In doing so, these mandates bypass the need to develop and enforce facility policies that are already legally in place and enforced legally by state and local agencies. Enforcing a 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 get sober in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
