It is a fact that clients in treatment for alcohol and/or drug addiction are more likely to be smokers, 75 percent in fact. With that being said few centers address the problem as a main addiction, despite the fact that helping people quit smoking during treatment is associated with a 25% greater chance the client will remain free from substance abuse. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment programs in Des Moines that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also provide nicotine addiction treatment.
While total smoking bans are not the norm, more and more facilities are actually starting 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 avoid 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 deter potential clients who smoke starting treatment. In the meantime, it will help those who do choose a no smoking alcohol and/or drug addiction rehab facility be better able to recover in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
