It is a known fact that individuals in treatment for alcohol and/or drug addiction are much more likely to be smokers, 75 percent in fact. With that being said 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 percent greater chance they will stay free from substance abuse. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment centers in Independence that implement a smoking ban and most of them also provide treatment for nicotine addiction.
While total smoking bans are not normal, an increasing number of centers 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 implement facility policies that are already legally in place and enforced legally by state and local agencies. Enforcing a smoking ban may make hesitant potential clients who smoke starting treatment. At the same time it will help those who do choose a no smoking drug and alcohol addiction rehab center be better able to get sober in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
