It is a known fact that people in rehab for substance abuse are more likely to be smokers, 75 percent in fact. With that being said few centers handle the problem as a primary addiction, even though the fact that helping clients quit smoking during rehab is associated with a 25 percent higher possibility they will stay free from substance abuse. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment facilities in St. Ansgar that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also offer nicotine addiction treatment.
While total bans on smoking are definitely not the norm, more and more facilities are starting to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make facilities completely smoke-free environments. In so doing, these mandates bypass 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 no smoking drug and alcohol addiction rehab program be better able to get sober in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
