Smoking Allowed in Designated Area - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Bloomfield, NJ.

It is estimated that approximately 75% of clients at residential rehab facilities for drug addiction and alcoholism are smokers. While it is true that nicotine is addicting and people in any sort of treatment for addiction should strive to be abstinent from all addictive substances, this can present problems that make enforcing a non-smoking facility outweigh the advantages of such restrictions. Someone who is addicted to a substance that could very well kill them immediately might not go to treatment if they must quit smoking cigarettes, so therefore, many facilities in Bloomfield allow smoking with some restrictions, limitations and in designated areas of their facility.

Some programs allow clients to smoke anywhere, provides it is outside for example. Some rehab centers have a designated smoking area, and this is the only place that clients can smoke. Due to the fact that nicotine is an addictive substance, even rehab facilities that have a designated area and allow smoking commonly introduce alternatives to smoking if the client would like to consider this as an option, such as nicotine patches, nicotine gum and prescriptions. There are also facilities which permit smoking in designated areas, but provide education on the health risks associated with smoking by incorporating this into their program either by way of direct education or by providing informational literature for clients to consider. In programs which permit smoking in designated areas this is typically only allowed for clients, and staff are often banned from smoking at the center or are encouraged to not smoke in front of clients.

Publicly funded drug rehab centers 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 programs have a little more tolerance and don't have as many restrictions imposed on them, so they be more likely to provide designated areas for smoking.
