Smoking Allowed in Designated Area - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Sidney, MT.

It is estimated that approximately 75% of clients at residential rehabilitation centers for drug addiction and alcoholism are smokers. While it is a fact that nicotine is an addictive substance and clients in rehab for addiction should endeavor to be free from all addictive substances, this can introduce problems that make enforcing a smoking ban outweigh the benefits of such restrictions. A person who is addicted to a substance that could very well kill them immediately might not agree to get help if they have to quit smoking cigarettes, so therefore, many rehab centers in Sidney allow smoking with some limitations, restrictions and in designated areas.

Some rehab centers allow clients to smoke anywhere, provides it is outdoors for example. Some rehab centers have a designated smoking area, which is the only place that clients can smoke. Because nicotine is addictive, even treatment facilities that have a designated area and allow smoking usually offer alternatives to smoking if the client would like to consider this as an option, such as nicotine replacement gum, patches and prescriptions. There are also rehab centers that permit smoking in designated areas, but provide education on the health risks associated with smoking by integrating this into their program either by way of direct one on one counseling or by offering educational literature for clients to examine. In rehab centers which permit smoking in designated areas this is sometimes only allowed for clients, whereas staff are often restricted from smoking at the facility or are asked to not smoke in front of clients.

Publicly funded addiction rehabilitation facilities are bound by the rules and restrictions in regards to smoking that are imposed by state and federal agencies which oversee and administer these programs. Private rehabilitation centers have a little more tolerance and don't have as many rules and restrictions imposed on them, so may be more likely to offer designated areas for smoking.
