It is a fact that individuals in rehab for drug and alcohol addiction 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 people quit smoking while in rehab is associated with a 25 percent higher possibility the individual will remain sober from drugs and alcohol. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehabilitation centers in Washington that implement a smoking ban and most of them also offer treatment for nicotine addiction.
While complete smoking bans are definitely not the norm, more and more programs are actually starting to enforce 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 smoking ban may deter potential clients who smoke starting treatment. At the same time it will help those who do choose a no smoking alcohol and/or drug addiction rehab facility be better able to get sober in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
