It is a fact that clients in treatment for alcohol and/or drug addiction are much more likely to be smokers, 75% in fact. As such few programs address the problem as a main addiction, even though the fact that helping individuals stop smoking while in treatment is associated with a 25% higher possibility they will stay free from substance abuse. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment programs in Tuscaloosa that implement a smoking ban and most of them also provide nicotine addiction treatment.
While total smoking bans are not normal, more and more facilities are actually starting to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make facilities 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. Enforcing a ban on smoking may deter potential clients who smoke starting treatment. At the same time it will help those who do choose a no smoking alcohol and/or drug addiction rehab facility be better able to get sober in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
