It is a known fact that people in rehab for drug and alcohol addiction are more likely to be smokers, 75% in fact. As such very few facilities handle the problem as a primary addiction, despite the fact that helping clients stop smoking while in rehab is associated with a 25% greater chance the individual will stay sober from drugs and alcohol. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehab programs in Barstow that implement a smoking ban and most of them also offer nicotine addiction treatment.
While total bans on smoking are not the norm, more and more centers are actually beginning to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make facilities completely smoke-free environments. 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. Implementing a ban on smoking may deter potential clients who smoke starting treatment. At the same time it will help those who do choose a no smoking drug and alcohol addiction rehab program be better able to get sober in a completely addiction and drug free environment.
