As a clinician, you know the serious toll smoking takes on your patients’ health. Tobacco use is the number one cause of preventable
death and disability in the United States, accounting for more than 400,000 deaths a year, according to the US Public Health
Service.
Seventy percent of smokers want to quit, but only six to eight percent can do it on their own, according to the US Public
Health Service. As a primary point of influence on your patients’ health, you can help them to quit. Albert Einstein Healthcare
Network can help you help your patients.
In a four-hour CME program, we offer physicians, smoking cessation counselors and other medical professionals training in
the latest, evidence-based,
clinical guidelines for treating tobacco use and dependence from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. In fact, thanks to our niche
expertise in providing smoking cessation training for clinicians, Albert Einstein Healthcare Network has been subcontracted
by the Departments of Health in Berks and Delaware Counties as part of
Pennsylvania’s tobacco settlement.
