It is a known fact that clients in rehab for alcohol and/or drug addiction are much more likely to be smokers, 75% in fact. As such few facilities handle the problem as a main addiction, even though the fact that helping clients quit smoking during rehab is associated with a 25 percent greater possibility the client will stay sober from alcohol and drugs. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehabilitation programs in Berkeley that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also provide treatment for nicotine addiction.
While complete smoking bans are definitely not the norm, more and more facilities are actually starting to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make rehabs completely smoke free. In doing so, these mandates avoid the need to develop and enforce facility policies that are already legally in place and enforced legally by state and local agencies. Enforcing a complete smoking ban may deter potential clients who smoke starting treatment. In the meantime, it will help those who do choose a no smoking drug and alcohol addiction rehab program be better able to get sober in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
