It is a fact that individuals in rehab for alcohol and/or drug addiction are much more likely to be smokers, 75% in fact. As such very few centers address the situation as a primary addiction, despite the fact that helping people quit smoking tobacco while in rehab is associated with a 25% greater chance the individual will stay sober from drugs and alcohol. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehabilitation centers in Wakefield that implement a smoking ban and most of them also offer treatment for nicotine addiction.
While total bans on smoking are not normal, 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, they bypass the need to develop and implement facility policies that are already legally in place and enforced legally by state and local agencies. Enforcing a complete 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 program be better able to recover in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
