It is a known fact that people in treatment for alcohol and/or drug addiction are more likely to be smokers, 75% in fact. With that being said few facilities address the problem as a primary addiction, even though the fact that helping people stop smoking during treatment is associated with a 25% greater possibility the client will stay sober from drugs and alcohol. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment centers in Fairfax that implement a smoking ban and most of them also provide nicotine addiction treatment.
While total bans on smoking are definitely not normal, more and more rehabs 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 doing so, these mandates avoid the need to develop and implement facility policies that are already legally in place and enforced legally by state and local agencies. Enforcing a smoking ban may deter potential clients who smoke starting treatment. In the meantime, it will help those who do choose a no smoking substance abuse rehab center be better able to recover in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
