It is a fact that people in rehabilitation for substance abuse are more likely to be smokers, 75% in fact. With that being said very few programs handle the problem as a primary addiction, despite the fact that helping clients quit smoking while in treatment is associated with a 25 percent higher possibility the client will stay free from substance abuse. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehab programs in Borderland that implement a smoking ban and most of them also offer nicotine addiction treatment.
While total bans on smoking 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 rehabs completely smoke free. In doing so, these mandates bypass the need to develop and enforce facility policies that are already legally in place and enforced legally by state and local agencies. Implementing a smoking ban may make hesitant potential clients who smoke starting treatment. In the meantime, it will help those who do choose a smoking not allowed alcohol and/or drug addiction rehab program be better able to recover in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
