It is a known fact that individuals in rehabilitation for alcohol and/or drug addiction are more likely to smoke tobacco, 75% in fact. As such very few centers address the situation as a primary addiction, even though the fact that helping people quit smoking while in rehab is associated with a 25% greater chance the client will stay sober from drugs and alcohol. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment centers in Prospect that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also provide treatment for nicotine addiction.
While total bans on smoking are definitely not normal, more and more facilities are actually beginning to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make rehabs completely smoke free. 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. Enforcing a ban on smoking may deter 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.
