Our hospital quit smoking program can help you breathe in new life.
The truth is, tobacco dependence is extremely complex and involves all aspects
of a person's being. That's why our quit smoking clinics treat the whole person:
medically, physiologically, psychologically and spiritually. To be successful,
you must participate in all aspects of the clinic, and be willing to replace
old behaviors with new ones.
Physicians and a nurse practitioner will help with the medical management of
your withdrawal, which may include medicine. If medicine is prescribed, it will
be based on your individual medical history, physiology, addictive profile, and
blood or urine nicotine/cotinine levels. Every person in this hospital quit
smoking program is here to empower you so you can face your addiction head-on
and come out on top.
An initial assessment, which includes a lung function test, will help identify
any physical challenges you may face. Once these have been identified, a team
of specialists help you put together the tools and strategies best suited to
your needs.

What is smoking costing you?
Do you schedule your day around getting in a quick smoke every few minutes?
Do you daydream about your next cigarette? Do you get up to leave in the middle
of a conversation because your best friend is controlling your every move? If
you answered "Yes" to any of these questions, or you felt a twinge
of guilt when you answered "No," smoking is costing you dearly. And
that's just the emotional and social costs.
