Non Smoking ( Smoke Free ) Drug Rehab Facility – Lotus wellness Rehab\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

When someone is going through alcohol or drug rehab, it\u2019s natural for them to want to distance themselves from all addictive substances, including nicotine and tobacco. In addition to being harmful and unpleasant to smell or breathe in, cigarettes may trigger cravings and other addictive behaviors that can lead to a decline in health and quality of life. Non-smoking rehab centers are becoming increasingly common because patients who come to treatment want to breathe clean air and not be around any type of substance use disorder, including smoking.<\/p>\n

Dangers Of Smoking In Rehab<\/strong><\/p>\n

Smoking in rehab poses a tremendous health risk and inconvenience to you and everyone else in your treatment program. Second-hand smoke can cause just as much disease as direct smoking, and many of your peers don\u2019t want the smell of smoke in their clothes, in their hair or on their skin.<\/p>\n

Additionally, data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) indicates that adults with mental health or substance use disorders (i.e., behavioral health conditions) smoke cigarettes more than adults without these disorders. You may also want to find a rehab that doesn\u2019t allow smoking even if you, yourself, are a smoker so you\u2019re not tempted or enabled during your care.<\/p>\n

Lotus wellness rehab in India caters to patients\u2019 health concerns, allergies, and respiratory conditions. This is even more true post \u00a0COVID-19 pandemic when people are increasingly concerned about their breathing health.<\/p>\n

Improving Recovery Outcomes by Going Smoke Free<\/strong><\/p>\n

Quitting smoking during treatment for a substance use disorder has long been considered too difficult for patients. But recent research is now debunking this long held belief. It\u2019s this research, and shifts in clinical practice, that has prompted lotus Wellness to establish itself as a smoke-free campus.<\/p>\n

\u201cTraditionally most rehabs have ignored cigarette smoking in drug treatment, and in fact, in many ways enabled it, believing it would be too overwhelming to stop all substances at one time, shares \u00a0Om Priya , founder of lotus who is a tobacco cessation specialist.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe evidence now demonstrates that stopping tobacco concurrently with alcohol and other drugs has a positive effect on treatment outcomes, promotes longer-time sobriety, and improves overall recovery.\u201d<\/p>\n

One recent study found that cigarette smoking increased the odds of relapse among people in recovery from a substance use disorder. Sustained cigarette smoking also increased the odds of drug use and the likelihood of substance use disorder.<\/p>\n

Why cigarette smoking might increase the chances of relapse remains somewhat unclear.<\/p>\n

The researchers of this particular study speculated that cigarettes may serve as a drug cue and relapse trigger since cigarette smoking often accompanies illicit drug use. Other studies have linked nicotine exposure to cravings for stimulants and opiates.<\/p>\n

What is clear, however, is that the myths surrounding cigarette smoking and drug and alcohol abstinence have become entrenched in the recovery culture.<\/p>\n

Mr Shanmugasundaram , General Manager at Lotus Wellness shares that one reason this myth may have perpetuated was that treatment facilities were concerned that fewer people would be willing to enter treatment at a smoke-free facility.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut we have \u00a0since found that at facilities like ours, it\u2019s not changed admission rates at all, he says.<\/p>\n

Which has enabled Lotus Wellness \u00a0to evaluate cigarette smoking for what it is: one of the leading causes of disease and death in the world. It\u2019s responsible for about one in five deaths, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.<\/p>\n

In a study, published in The Journal of Substance Abuse Treatment, over 50 percent of the deaths among patients in treatment for a substance use disorder were related to tobacco use, compared with 33 percent who died as a result of their drug or alcohol use.<\/p>\n

\u201cCigarettes are a highly addictive substance and we\u2019re a substance abuse facility, so we need to be addressing this, says Om Priya .<\/p>\n

Additionally, Lotus is working with Lotus life and recruits only non smoking and non drinking staff .<\/p>\n

\u201cNot everyone coming to lotus will quit smoking, and not everyone is coming here thinking that\u2019s a goal, Om Priya says. \u201cWe just want to help them understand what nicotine does to their physical and mental health and their recovery efforts so that they can begin to make smarter decisions about it.”<\/p>\n
