It is a fact that people in rehab for drug and alcohol addiction are more likely to be smokers, 75 percent in fact. As such few programs address the situation as a main addiction, even though the fact that helping clients quit smoking tobacco while in rehab is associated with a 25 percent greater chance the individual will stay sober from drugs and alcohol. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehab programs in Evangeline that implement a smoking ban and most of them also offer treatment for nicotine addiction.
While total bans on smoking are definitely not the norm, an increasing number of rehabs 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, these mandates 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 ban on smoking may deter potential clients who smoke starting treatment. At the same time it will help those who do choose a no smoking alcohol and/or drug addiction rehab program be better able to get sober in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
