It is a fact that individuals in rehabilitation for alcohol and/or drug addiction are more likely to be smokers, 75% in fact. As such very few centers handle the problem as a primary addiction, even though the fact that helping clients quit smoking tobacco while in rehab is associated with a 25 percent higher chance the client will stay free from substance abuse. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehabilitation programs in Thornton that implement a smoking ban and most of them also provide treatment for nicotine addiction.
While complete bans on smoking are not normal, an increasing number of facilities are actually beginning to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make facilities completely smoke-free environments. In doing so, 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. Implementing a complete smoking ban may make hesitant potential clients who smoke starting treatment. In the meantime, it will help those who do choose a no smoking substance abuse rehab center be better able to get sober in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
