DESCRIPTION:
Very good guide! J Lynne This is a very well organized, detailed, step-by-step guide! It includes everything from financing and policies to service delivery to program evaluation. It is great having it all in one book. It is also based upon and references the most important evidenced-based research, citing Michael Fiore's work and the effective 5 A's of cessation intervention. I would like to see more sample policies provided, but overall this is an excellent publication that I was pleasantly surprised to find!
"The program designed by these researchers has yielded some of the highest short- and long-term cessation rates of any intervention The American Heart Association has adopted this intervention, which also speaks to its validity, reliability, credibility, and success…some will buy this book simply because of who the authors are… I would recommend this book to health professionals involved withsmoking cessation… A book like this is long overdue."Dana Busch, PsyDUniversity of Pittsburgh Cancer Institute"A significant contribution to the field of smoking cessation and to the field of health psychology/behavioral medicine in general To my knowledge, there are no books that present practical, "how-to" guidelinesof evidence-based interventions for smoking cessation I wish I had the book two years ago I wouldrecommend it to colleagues and students."Belinda Borrelli, Ph.D.Brown Medical School"This book…is an essential resource for those committed to conquering the single most preventable cause of death and disability in the United States, Canada, and worldwide."Nancy Houston Miller, R.N., B.S.N.Stanford Cardiac Rehabilitation Program
Implementing an Inpatient Smoking Cessation Program serves as a step-by-step manual for implementing a cost-effective tobacco cessation program for hospitalized patients. Readers can then use this information as a blueprint for implementing their own program. Implementing an Inpatient Smoking Cessation Program is intended for health care administrators, providers, researchers, educators, and students in health care administration, public health, community and health psychology, (behavioral) medicine, nursing, respiratory therapy, and rehabilitation.. Its how-to approach focuses on the skills needed to: determine the work that needs to be done, select the appropriate interventions and providers, pay for and market the program, and create systems to keep the program alive. A chapter on workflow provides a "virtual tour" of what to expect from the first 48 hours through the first year. It provides algorithms for forecasting program enrollment and information on how to budget the program. Although the book reviews a tobacco cessation program, the process is applicable to most behavioral interventions in acute- or long-term care settings.The book details the administrative responsibilities involved in designing, implementing, delivering, evaluating, and maintaining an inpatient tobacco cessation program.
