It is a fact that individuals in rehabilitation for drug and alcohol addiction are much more likely to be smokers, 75 percent in fact. As such few facilities handle the problem as a primary addiction, despite the fact that helping individuals quit smoking during rehab is associated with a 25 percent greater chance the individual will stay sober from alcohol and drugs. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment programs in Steedman that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also provide nicotine addiction treatment.
While total smoking bans are definitely not normal, more and more programs are starting to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make facilities completely smoke free. 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 recover in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
