It is a fact that clients in treatment for alcohol and/or drug addiction are more likely to be smokers, 75 percent in fact. As such very few programs address the situation as a main addiction, even though the fact that helping people stop smoking tobacco during treatment is associated with a 25% higher chance the client will remain sober from drugs and alcohol. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehab centers in New Kensington that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also offer nicotine addiction treatment.
While complete bans on smoking are definitely not the norm, more and more programs are actually starting to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make rehabs completely smoke-free environments. In so doing, these mandates avoid the need to develop and implement 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 drug and alcohol addiction rehab facility be better able to get sober in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
