It is a fact that clients in rehabilitation for drug and alcohol addiction are more likely to smoke tobacco, 75% in fact. With that being said very few centers address the situation as a primary addiction, despite the fact that helping individuals quit smoking tobacco while in rehab is associated with a 25% greater chance the client will remain sober from drugs and alcohol. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment facilities in Berlin that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also provide nicotine addiction treatment.
While complete smoking bans are not the norm, more and more programs are actually 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 bypass the need to develop and implement facility policies that are already legally in place and enforced legally by state and local agencies. Implementing a smoking ban may deter potential clients who smoke starting treatment. In the meantime, it will help those who do choose a smoking not allowed substance abuse rehab facility be better able to recover in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
