It is a fact that people in rehab for drug and alcohol addiction are much more likely to smoke tobacco, 75 percent in fact. With that being said very few facilities address the situation as a primary addiction, despite the fact that helping clients stop smoking during treatment is associated with a 25% greater chance they will stay sober from drugs and alcohol. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehabilitation facilities in Tahoe City that implement a smoking ban and most of them also provide treatment for nicotine addiction.
While total bans on smoking are definitely not normal, an increasing number of facilities are actually beginning to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make rehabs completely smoke free. In doing so, they 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 make hesitant potential clients who smoke starting treatment. At the same time 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.
