Smoking Allowed in Designated Area - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Henryetta, OK.

It is estimated that around 75% of clients at residential treatment programs 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 introduce problems that make enforcing a non-smoking facility outweigh the advantages of such restrictions. A person who is addicted to a substance that could very well kill them immediately might not get help if they must quit smoking cigarettes, so therefore, many programs in Henryetta allow smoking with some restrictions, limitations and in designated areas.

Some programs permit clients to smoke anywhere, so long as it is outside for instance. Some programs have a designated smoking area, which is the only place that clients are allowed to smoke in. Due to the fact that nicotine is addictive, even treatment centers that have a designated area and allow smoking usually provide 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 programs which permit smoking in designated areas, but provide education on the health risks associated with smoking by including this into their program either by way of direct one on one counseling or by offering educational literature for clients to consider. In facilities which allow smoking in designated areas this is sometimes only approved for clients, and staff are sometimes banned from smoking at the facility or are asked to not smoke in front of clients.

Publicly funded addiction rehabilitation facilities are obligated 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 facilities have a little more leeway and don't have as many rules and restrictions imposed on them, so they be more likely to offer designated areas for smoking.
