Support the delivery of Smoking Cessation within your day-to-day practice with our Smoking Cessation All Day Workshop for closed cohorts and groups.

This learning package is designed for health and care professionals at all levels who currently support patients who will benefit from quitting smoking, or who would like to develop Smoking Cessation initiatives within their practice. The course is suitable for individuals working in Primary Care, Secondary Care, and Community or Public Health services.

Led by an experienced clinical specialist and facilitator, this interactive online programme will enable you to update your knowledge and skills in order to provide high quality advice and support to potential quitters. The programme is split into three distinct webinars, focusing on:

  • The importance of Smoking Cessation and how to support behaviour change
  • The physiological effects of smoking, and the pharmacological options available to patients
  • Applying learning to your own practice, and overcoming barriers to change

These webinars are delivered in a one-day programme to enable students to share best practice and build on existing knowledge throughout the day. The course is highly interactive with opportunities for peer dialogue and shared learning, and discussions will be focused to meet participants’ needs and desired learning outcomes. The day ends with the development of a personal action plan to support the improvement of Smoking Cessation provision in individual practice. Currently we are only offering this course for group purchases.
