While smoking is associated with substance abuse in many ways, some facilities think that enforcing total cessation during treatment can cause bigger problems than it is worth by maintaining a ban on smoking. Maintaining a smoking ban can cause premature departure from treatment, or even a hesitancy to even start rehab. Some studies even show that allowing people to smoke while in rehab, especially in the early stages of recovery, is often a way for individuals to bond with their friends and the treatment professionals that they are there with.
Smoking permitted without restriction drug rehabilitation facilities in Sunderland take into account that not everyone in recovery is a smoker, so there are some guidelines and restrictions that are implemented and adhered to by individuals who intend to continue smoking during rehab. Even most people who smoke do not want to be in a place where there are no smoking rules in place and so these programs have smoking allowed areas so that people who has not decided to quit can smoke freely and without judgment. These specific smoking areas are mostly outside and there are very few programs which allow smoking inside. Most substance abuse rehabilitation programs also provide services for clients who would like to try to quit smoking while in rehab.
