It is a fact that individuals in treatment for drug and alcohol addiction are more likely to be smokers, 75% in fact. As such very few centers handle the situation as a main addiction, despite the fact that helping clients stop smoking tobacco while in treatment is associated with a 25 percent higher possibility the client will stay sober from drugs and alcohol. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehab centers in Lafayette that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also provide treatment for nicotine addiction.
While complete smoking bans are definitely not normal, an increasing number of programs are beginning to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make facilities completely smoke free. In doing so, they avoid the need to develop and enforce 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 drug and alcohol addiction rehab program be better able to recover in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
