Smoking Cessation Plan
Smoking Cessation Plan
Smoking cessation is a critical medical intervention because its success depends on the willingness of the patient to adhere to the recommended actions. As a result, the process should begin with enquiring about the smoking problem and offering patient education and awareness to highlight the risks of tobacco use and available rehabilitative options. The step should also involve persuading the individual to stop smoking and assessing their willingness and motivation to quit and the barriers. The next stage consists of developing a quit plan, including identifying the available therapies and interventions, engaging the patient in choosing the best one that suits them, and providing the necessary support (Olenik & Mospan, 2017). It is critical to engage the patients at every stage to ensure commitment to the process
