Smoking Allowed in Designated Area - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Henderson, NV.

It is estimated that approximately 75% of clients at residential treatment facilities for drug and alcohol addiction are smokers. While it is true that nicotine is an addictive substance and people in any sort of treatment for addiction should strive to be abstinent from all addictive substances, this can introduce problems that make enforcing a smoking ban outweigh the advantages of such restrictions. A person who is addicted to a substance as life threatening as drugs and alcohol might not go to treatment if they must quit smoking cigarettes, so many programs in Henderson allow smoking with certain restrictions, limitations and in designated areas.

Some rehab centers allow clients to smoke anywhere, provides it is outdoors for example. Some facilities have a designated smoking area, which is the only place that clients can smoke. Because nicotine is an addictive substance, even treatment facilities that have a designated area and allow smoking commonly provide alternatives to smoking if the client wants to quit, such as nicotine replacement gum, patches and prescriptions. There are also programs which allow smoking in designated areas, but educate clients on the health risks associated with smoking by including this into their program either by way of direct education or by providing educational literature for clients to examine. In programs which allow smoking in designated areas this is typically only allowed for clients, and staff are often banned from smoking at the facility or are asked to not smoke in front of clients.

Publicly funded addiction treatment facilities are obligated by the rules and restrictions in regards to smoking that are enforced by state and federal agencies which oversee and administer these programs. Private treatment programs have a bit more leeway and don't have as many rules and restrictions imposed on them, so they be more likely to provide designated areas for smoking.
