Smoking Not Allowed - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - St. Leonard, MD.

It is a known fact that people in treatment for alcohol and/or drug addiction are more likely to smoke tobacco, 75 percent in fact. With that being said very few facilities address the problem as a main addiction, even though the fact that helping people quit smoking during treatment is associated with a 25% greater possibility the individual will stay free from substance abuse. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment facilities in St. Leonard that implement a smoking ban and most of them also provide nicotine addiction treatment.

While total bans on smoking are definitely not normal, more and more programs are starting to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make rehabs completely smoke-free environments. In doing so, they avoid the need to develop and implement 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. In the meantime, it will help those who do choose a no smoking substance abuse rehab program be better able to get sober in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
