It is a known fact that clients in treatment for alcohol and/or drug addiction are more likely to be smokers, 75% in fact. As such few programs handle the problem as a primary addiction, despite the fact that helping individuals quit smoking during rehab is associated with a 25% greater chance the client will remain sober from alcohol and drugs. As a result, there are 'smoking not allowed' drug treatment facilities in Cleveland that enforce a smoking ban and most of them also provide nicotine addiction treatment.
While total smoking bans are not the norm, more and more rehabs are beginning to enforce their own bans, but also state and local tobacco-free workplace mandates attempt to make rehabs completely smoke-free environments. In so doing, 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 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 recover in a completely drug and addiction free environment.
