It is a known fact that people in rehab for alcohol and/or drug addiction are more likely to smoke tobacco, 75 percent in fact. As such very few centers handle the situation as a main addiction, even though the fact that helping individuals stop smoking tobacco during treatment is associated with a 25% greater chance they will remain sober from alcohol and drugs. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehabilitation programs in New Philadelphia that implement a smoking ban and most of them also provide nicotine addiction treatment.
While total smoking bans are definitely not normal, more and more facilities are beginning to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make facilities completely smoke-free environments. In so doing, they 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 smoking ban may deter potential clients who smoke starting treatment. At the same time it will help those who do choose a no smoking substance abuse rehab facility be better able to recover in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
