It is a fact that people in rehab for drug and alcohol addiction are much more likely to be smokers, 75 percent in fact. With that being said very few programs address the situation as a primary addiction, despite the fact that helping clients stop smoking while in treatment is associated with a 25 percent greater possibility the individual will stay sober from drugs and alcohol. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehabilitation facilities in Athens that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also provide treatment for nicotine addiction.
While total bans on smoking are definitely not the norm, more and more rehabs are actually beginning to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make rehabs completely smoke-free environments. In doing so, these mandates bypass the need to develop and implement 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 alcohol and/or drug addiction rehab facility be better able to get sober in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
