It is a known fact that individuals in rehabilitation for drug and alcohol addiction are more likely to smoke tobacco, 75% in fact. As such very few programs handle the situation as a primary addiction, even though the fact that helping people stop smoking while in treatment is associated with a 25 percent greater chance they will stay free from substance abuse. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment programs in North Providence that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also provide nicotine addiction treatment.
While complete bans on smoking are definitely not normal, an increasing number of facilities are starting to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make facilities completely smoke-free environments. In doing so, these mandates avoid the need to develop and enforce facility policies that are already legally in place and enforced legally by state and local agencies. Implementing a smoking ban 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 recover in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
