It is a fact that clients in rehab for drug and alcohol addiction are more likely to be smokers, 75 percent in fact. As such very few centers address the situation as a primary addiction, even though the fact that helping individuals quit smoking during rehab is associated with a 25% higher chance the client will remain free from substance abuse. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehab programs in Elk Rapids that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also offer treatment for nicotine addiction.
While complete bans on smoking are definitely not the norm, more and more rehabs are starting to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make facilities completely smoke-free environments. In so doing, 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. Implementing a smoking ban may deter potential clients who smoke starting treatment. In the meantime, it will help those who do choose a smoking not allowed substance abuse rehab facility be better able to recover in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
