It is a fact that individuals in rehab for drug and alcohol addiction are more likely to smoke tobacco, 75 percent in fact. With that being said few programs address the problem as a main addiction, despite the fact that helping individuals quit smoking while in treatment is associated with a 25% greater chance they will remain free from substance abuse. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehabilitation programs in Mount Vernon that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also provide treatment for nicotine addiction.
While total smoking bans are definitely not the norm, an increasing number of programs are beginning to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make rehabs completely smoke free. In so doing, they 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 complete smoking ban may deter potential clients who smoke starting treatment. At the same time it will help those who do choose a no smoking drug and alcohol addiction rehab facility be better able to recover in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
