Question:
What programs are used at Smoking Cessation Clinics?
Answer:
The clinic helps people quit smoking using The American Lung Association successful smoking cessation program called "Freedom from Smoking." It focuses on behavior modification,
he said. The class utilizes the association's years of expertise and support
from class participants to help people quit smoking. For three weeks, the
class centers on the triggers that cause them to smoke. Then together they
designate a date to quit. There is also an online version of the class. It's
kind of a cyber-buddy system, Goerke said. "We've had good success with it,"
he said. "The good thing is that they can go online at three in the
morning."
