Smoking cessation in secondary care: mental health settings
Guidance and self-assessment framework for NHS mental health trusts to develop action to reduce the use of tobacco.
Documents
Details
These documents are for healthcare commissioners and providers to help support people to stop smoking or reduce harm from smoking while receiving care in a mental health setting. This includes secure mental health services and child and adolescent mental health services.
The documents provide guidance with:
- understanding why smoking and mental health is a public health concern
- the benefits of smoking cessation and what works
- preparing and implementing a smokefree policy in mental health settings
- expert interviews and case studies
The mental health deep dive self-assessment tool helps local NHS trusts take a more in-depth look at important areas of their smokefree implementation. Please save the self-assessment file to your computer and click ‘enable editing’ before using it.
