It is a known fact that individuals in treatment for substance abuse are much more likely to be smokers, 75% in fact. As such very few facilities address the situation as a primary addiction, even though the fact that helping individuals quit smoking tobacco during treatment is associated with a 25% greater chance they will stay sober from alcohol and drugs. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehab programs in Sheffield that implement a smoking ban and most of them also provide treatment for nicotine addiction.
While complete bans on smoking are not the norm, an increasing number of centers are beginning to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make rehabs completely smoke-free environments. In doing so, these mandates bypass the need to develop and implement facility policies that are already legally in place and enforced legally by state and local agencies. Implementing a ban on smoking may make hesitant potential clients who smoke starting treatment. In the meantime, it will help those who do choose a no smoking substance abuse rehab program be better able to get sober in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
