It is a known fact that individuals in treatment for alcohol and/or drug addiction are much more likely to smoke tobacco, 75% in fact. With that being said very few programs handle the problem as a primary addiction, despite the fact that helping individuals quit smoking during treatment is associated with a 25% higher possibility they will stay sober from drugs and alcohol. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehabilitation programs in New London that implement a smoking ban and most of them also provide treatment for nicotine addiction.
While complete bans on smoking are definitely not the norm, an increasing number of rehabs are actually beginning to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make facilities completely smoke-free environments. In so doing, they avoid the need to develop and implement facility policies that are already legally in place and enforced legally by state and local agencies. Implementing a complete 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 program be better able to get sober in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
