It is a known fact that clients in rehabilitation for alcohol and/or drug addiction are much more likely to be smokers, 75 percent in fact. With that being said few programs address the situation as a primary addiction, despite the fact that helping clients stop smoking tobacco during rehab is associated with a 25 percent higher chance they will stay sober from alcohol and drugs. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehab centers in Grinnell that implement a smoking ban and most of them also provide treatment for nicotine addiction.
While total bans on smoking are definitely not the norm, more and more programs are starting to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make rehabs completely smoke free. In so doing, they avoid the need to develop and implement facility policies that are already legally in place and enforced legally by state and local agencies. Enforcing 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 drug and alcohol addiction rehab program be better able to get sober in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
