It is a fact that people in treatment for alcohol and/or drug addiction are more likely to smoke tobacco, 75 percent in fact. As such few programs address the problem as a main addiction, even though the fact that helping people stop smoking tobacco while in rehab is associated with a 25 percent greater chance they will remain sober from alcohol and drugs. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehabilitation centers in Letcher that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also offer nicotine addiction treatment.
While complete bans on smoking are definitely not the norm, an increasing number of centers are actually starting to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make facilities completely smoke free. In so doing, they avoid the need to develop and implement 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. At the same time it will help those who do choose a no smoking alcohol and/or drug addiction rehab program be better able to recover in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
