It is a fact that individuals in rehabilitation for drug and alcohol addiction are much more likely to be smokers, 75 percent in fact. As such few programs address the problem as a primary addiction, despite the fact that helping clients quit smoking tobacco during rehab is associated with a 25 percent higher possibility they will remain sober from alcohol and drugs. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehab facilities in Portola Valley that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also offer nicotine addiction treatment.
While total bans on smoking are not normal, an increasing number of rehabs are beginning to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make rehabs completely smoke-free environments. In doing so, they bypass the need to develop and enforce facility policies that are already legally in place and enforced legally by state and local agencies. Enforcing a smoking ban may make hesitant potential clients who smoke starting treatment. In the meantime, it will help those who do choose a smoking not allowed alcohol and/or drug addiction rehab facility be better able to get sober in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
