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 handle the problem as a main addiction, despite the fact that helping clients quit smoking tobacco during rehab is associated with a 25 percent higher chance they will stay free from substance abuse. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehab facilities in New London that implement a smoking ban and most of them also provide nicotine addiction treatment.
While total bans on smoking are definitely not the norm, more and more facilities are actually starting to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make rehabs 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. Enforcing a 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 facility be better able to recover in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
