It is a known fact that people in treatment for alcohol and/or drug addiction are much more likely to be smokers, 75 percent in fact. As such very few programs handle the problem as a primary addiction, despite the fact that helping individuals quit smoking tobacco during treatment is associated with a 25 percent higher chance they will remain sober from alcohol and drugs. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehab facilities in Louann that implement a smoking ban and most of them also provide nicotine addiction treatment.
While complete bans on smoking are definitely not normal, more and more facilities are actually beginning to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make facilities completely smoke free. In so doing, they 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 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 program be better able to get sober in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
