Smoking Allowed in Designated Area - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Monticello, AR.

It is estimated that approximately 75% of clients at residential rehabilitation programs for drug and alcohol addiction are smokers. While it is a fact that nicotine is an addictive substance and clients in any sort of treatment for addiction should strive to be abstinent from all addictive substances, this can introduce problems that make enforcing a smoking ban outweigh the benefits of such restrictions. A person who is addicted to a substance that could very well kill them immediately might not go to treatment if they have to quit smoking cigarettes, so therefore, many programs in Monticello allow smoking with some restrictions, limitations and in designated areas.

Some rehab centers allow clients to smoke anywhere, as long as it is outdoors for example. Some rehab centers have a designated smoking area, which is the only place that clients can smoke. Due to the fact that nicotine is an addictive substance, even treatment centers that allow smoking usually introduce alternatives to smoking if the client would like to consider this as an option, such as nicotine patches, nicotine gum and prescriptions. There are also programs that permit smoking in designated areas, but provide education on the health risks associated with smoking by incorporating this into their program either by way of direct education or by providing informational literature for clients to examine. In rehab centers which permit smoking in designated areas this is typically only approved for clients, whereas staff are sometimes restricted from smoking at the center or are encouraged to not smoke in front of clients.

Publicly funded addiction treatment programs are obligated by the rules and restrictions in regards to smoking that are enforced by state and federal agencies which oversee and administer these programs. Private rehabilitation programs have a bit more leeway and don't have as many rules and restrictions imposed on them, so they be more likely to offer designated areas for smoking.
