It is a known fact that people in treatment for drug and alcohol addiction are much more likely to smoke tobacco, 75% in fact. With that being said few centers address the situation as a primary addiction, even though the fact that helping clients stop smoking while in rehab is associated with a 25% greater chance the client will remain sober from drugs and alcohol. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehabilitation programs in Fairfax that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also provide nicotine addiction treatment.
While total bans on smoking are not the norm, more and more programs are actually starting to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make rehabs completely smoke-free environments. In so doing, 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. Implementing a ban on smoking may deter potential clients who smoke starting treatment. In the meantime, it will help those who do choose a smoking not allowed substance abuse rehab facility be better able to recover in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
