About this course
Healthcare providers can play a key role in assisting their patients to quit smoking, a change which can result in dramatic improvements in their health and quality of life. Although the benefits of smoking cessation are well documented, this lifestyle change is often a complex and challenging process. Within this course, the biopsychosocial conceptualization of smoking and cessation are presented and the application of The Stages of Change Model are discussed. Specifically, practical strategies to quickly assess and effectively respond to a patient’s current level of motivation for change are provided. Evidence-based clinical interventions tailored to individualized patient needs, such as cognitive behavioral and motivational interviewing techniques, are presented in detail, providing healthcare professionals with a repertoire of assessment and intervention strategies to optimize their patients’ smoking cessation efforts.
