It is a fact that clients in rehab for drug and alcohol addiction are more likely to be smokers, 75 percent in fact. As such few programs address the situation as a primary addiction, even though the fact that helping individuals quit smoking tobacco while in rehab is associated with a 25 percent greater chance the individual will stay sober from alcohol and drugs. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment programs in Buena Vista that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also offer nicotine addiction treatment.
While total bans on smoking are definitely not normal, more and more rehabs are beginning to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make rehabs completely smoke free. In doing so, these mandates avoid the need to develop and enforce facility policies that are already legally in place and enforced legally by state and local agencies. Enforcing a complete smoking ban may deter potential clients who smoke starting treatment. In the meantime, it will help those who do choose a smoking not allowed substance abuse rehab center be better able to recover in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
