Smoking Cessation
Even people who enjoy smoking usually want to quit the habit but often cannot manage to successfully give up.
Some of the risks are:
- Heart and arterial disease – heart attack, stroke and amputation
- All kinds of cancer but especially cancer of the lung
- Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease – a cough with phlegm every day
Health benefits begin the minute you stop smoking
We actively encourage and support patients in their efforts to ‘quit the habit’ and can offer advice to help. If you would like to quit smoking please ask our Healthcare Co-ordinators for details of the local NHS support services available.
