STOP SMOKING SERVICE

Start 2007 with a new year resolution to commit to quit smoking. The K&C Mental Health Carers Association are now offering a stop smoking service in the wake of the non smoking ban in all hospitals and NHS premises, which is coming into effect on the 1st of January 2007. You may self refer or use the PCT approved referral form from the hospitals for one to one support. We help in-patients, service users, carers, all staff including nurses, doctors and managers as well as any members of our community to reach this goal with ease. The course consists of 6 weekly sessions with motivational support, information, breath carbon monoxide tests and free prescriptions of NRT (Nicotine Replacement Treatment). There are six different types of nicotine products available to alleviate withdrawal symptoms. Patches, chewing gums, inhalators, lozenges, nasal sprays & microtabs. Our advisors are CRB vettet counsellors. Hypnotherapy also available on request. For more information or referrals please call Monique on: 0208 960 3873
