It is a fact that individuals in rehabilitation for alcohol and/or drug addiction are much more likely to be smokers, 75% in fact. As such few programs handle the situation as a primary addiction, despite the fact that helping clients quit smoking tobacco while in treatment is associated with a 25% higher chance they will stay sober from alcohol and drugs. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehabilitation centers in West Newton that implement a smoking ban and most of them also provide treatment for nicotine addiction.
While complete bans on smoking are definitely not normal, more and more facilities are actually starting to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make rehabs completely smoke free. In so doing, they 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 no smoking alcohol and/or drug addiction rehab program be better able to get sober in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
