It is a known fact that people in treatment for drug and alcohol addiction are more likely to be smokers, 75 percent in fact. With that being said very few centers handle the problem as a main addiction, despite the fact that helping people quit smoking tobacco during rehab is associated with a 25 percent higher chance the individual will remain sober from alcohol and drugs. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehabilitation centers in The Colony that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also provide nicotine addiction treatment.
While complete bans on smoking are definitely not the norm, more and more programs are actually beginning to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates angle to make rehabs completely smoke-free environments. In so doing, these mandates bypass the need to develop and enforce facility policies that are already legally in place and enforced legally by state and local agencies. Implementing a complete smoking ban may make hesitant potential clients who smoke starting treatment. At the same time it will help those who do choose a no smoking alcohol and/or drug addiction rehab program be better able to recover in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
