It is a known fact that people in treatment for alcohol and/or drug addiction are much more likely to smoke tobacco, 75% in fact. As such very few centers handle the problem as a main addiction, even though the fact that helping people quit smoking during treatment is associated with a 25% greater chance the individual will stay sober from drugs and alcohol. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehab programs in Brookside that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also offer nicotine addiction treatment.
While total bans on smoking are not the norm, an increasing number of centers are actually starting to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle 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. Enforcing a complete smoking ban may make hesitant potential clients who smoke starting treatment. In the meantime, it will help those who do choose a no smoking substance abuse rehab center be better able to recover in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
