It is a fact that clients in treatment for alcohol and/or drug addiction are more likely to smoke tobacco, 75 percent in fact. As such very few facilities address the situation as a main addiction, even though the fact that helping individuals stop smoking during treatment is associated with a 25% higher possibility the client will remain free from substance abuse. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment facilities in Chincoteague Island that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also provide treatment for nicotine addiction.
While complete bans on smoking are definitely not normal, more and more facilities are beginning to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make facilities completely smoke free. In doing so, they 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 make hesitant 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.
