It is a known fact that people in treatment for alcohol and/or drug addiction are more likely to smoke tobacco, 75 percent in fact. As such very few centers address the problem as a main addiction, despite the fact that helping individuals stop smoking tobacco during rehab is associated with a 25% greater chance they will stay free from substance abuse. Because of this, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug rehab facilities in Big Bend that implement a smoking ban and most of them also provide nicotine addiction treatment.
While total smoking bans are definitely not the norm, an increasing number of facilities are beginning to implement their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make facilities completely smoke free. In doing so, these mandates 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 smoking ban may make hesitant potential clients who smoke starting treatment. At the same time it will help those who do choose a smoking not allowed alcohol and/or drug addiction rehab facility be better able to recover in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
