Description
The Provision of Smoking Cessation Support Service;
Operating as a preventative and a clinical programme that focuses on behaviour change; Sandwell Smoking Cessation Support Service has a vision of enhancing health and wellbeing, improving physical and psychological quality of life and reducing the risk of disease and illness in individuals, families and communities.
The new Smoking Cessation Support Service aims to be an efficiently delivered service which prioritises the needs of smokers in our population that need the service the most.
Core to service delivery is innovation and flexibility to respond to emerging developments such as advances in technologies, new research findings and system-wide developments afforded from national and local delivery ambitions.
It is expected that there will be 2 main elements to service delivery:
o A specialist service for cessation of smoking (covering all pharmacological and behavioural support intervention delivery management as well as brief advice/smoking cessation training to stakeholders). This element will require delivery across the system - in particular to reflect and involve organisations/settings/groups who already encounter populations with a high prevalence of smokers.
o A self-help option for cessation of smoking (directed at those already inclined to quit and with the necessary access/resource to do so). This element will be accessed by smokers wanting to quit but not interested in the conventional approach of face-to-face or telephone support. Behavioural support will be delivered through digital means including regular motivational messages that can track progress. Should any pharmacological needs be required alongside this, the Provider will manage such provision
o Where appropriate, vape supply and support is to be ensured across both elements towards a harm reduction approach.
