It is estimated that approximately 75% of clients at residential rehabilitation programs for drug addiction and alcoholism are smokers. While it is true that nicotine is an addictive substance and people in rehab for addiction should strive to be abstinent from all addictive substances, this can introduce problems that make enforcing a non-smoking facility outweigh the benefits of this restriction. Someone who is addicted to a substance that could very well kill them immediately might not agree to go to treatment if they have to quit smoking cigarettes, so many rehab centers in Hacksneck allow smoking with certain restrictions, limitations and in designated areas.
Some programs permit clients to smoke anywhere, provides it is outside for example. Some facilities have a designated smoking area, which is the only area that clients are allowed to smoke in. Because nicotine is addictive, even rehab programs that allow smoking commonly provide alternatives to smoking if the client wants to quit, such as nicotine replacement gum, patches and prescriptions. There are also rehab centers which permit smoking in designated areas, but educate clients on the health risks associated with smoking by incorporating this into their program either by way of direct education or by providing informational literature for clients to examine. In facilities which allow smoking in designated areas this is typically only approved for clients, whereas staff are often restricted from smoking at the center or are encouraged to not smoke in front of clients.
Publicly funded substance abuse treatment centers are bound by the rules and restrictions in regards to smoking that are enforced by state and federal agencies which oversee and administer these programs. Private treatment programs have a bit more tolerance and don't have as many restrictions imposed on them, so they be more likely to offer designated areas for smoking.
