It is a known fact that individuals in treatment for alcohol and/or drug addiction are much more likely to be smokers, 75% in fact. As such few programs handle the problem as a main addiction, despite the fact that helping people stop smoking tobacco during rehab is associated with a 25% greater chance the client will remain sober from alcohol and drugs. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment facilities in Downey that implement a smoking ban and most of them also offer treatment for nicotine addiction.
While total smoking bans are not the norm, an increasing number of rehabs are beginning to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make facilities completely smoke free. In so doing, these mandates bypass the need to develop and implement facility policies that are already legally in place and enforced legally by state and local agencies. Implementing 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 alcohol and/or drug addiction rehab program be better able to get sober in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
