It is a fact that individuals in rehab for substance abuse are more likely to smoke tobacco, 75 percent in fact. With that being said very few facilities address the situation as a primary addiction, even though the fact that helping individuals quit smoking tobacco during rehab is associated with a 25% greater possibility they will stay sober from alcohol and drugs. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehabilitation facilities in Albany that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also offer treatment for nicotine addiction.
While complete bans on smoking are definitely not the norm, more and more centers are actually starting to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make rehabs completely smoke free. In so doing, they avoid 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 deter potential clients who smoke starting treatment. In the meantime, it will help those who do choose a smoking not allowed drug and alcohol addiction rehab facility be better able to get sober in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
