REACH offers smoking cessation program in March - February 26, 2008
NORTH ADAMS - The REACH Community Health Foundation will offer its “Quitters are Winners” tobacco cessation program at Clark House on the North Adams Regional Hospital Campus, starting Monday, March 10. Those interested can register by calling REACH at (413) 664-5326. The program will be held on Monday evenings from 6-7:30 p.m. through March 31.
“Quitters are Winners” is a four-session program sponsored by REACH. A trained tobacco treatment specialist helps the group to create a supportive environment, which in turn helps participants break the tobacco addiction. Each tobacco user who joins the class develops an individual plan for quitting. The program, open to the public, is limited to 15 participants and pre-registration is necessary.
The registration fee is $20 and includes all program materials. Participants who attend all four dates will receive a refund of the registration fee. Appropriate nicotine replacement therapies (patches and/or gum) are provided at cost.
The program will provide information about stress management, weight control, and how to prevent or handle relapses.
During the program, the facilitator will teach a step-by-step method for changing behavior and quitting tobacco. “Quitters are Winners” addresses positive thinking, changing behaviors, one-on-one help, rewards and group support to help smokers to quit tobacco.
The REACH Community Health Foundation is a nonprofit subsidiary of Northern Berkshire Healthcare and is dedicated to improving the health of the Northern Berkshire community. In addition to tobacco treatment programs, REACH runs programs in men’s health, breast cancer support and care navigation, caregiver support, dental health, children’s health, and nutrition and fitness.
For more information, please call (413) 664-5326. |
