Patient survey examining the experience of care of a hospital-based opt-out tobacco dependency treatment service (the CURE Project)

CONCLUSION: These results suggest this hospital-based, opt-out tobacco dependency treatment service delivers high-quality experience of care and meets the needs of the patients it serves. It also highlights the opportunity to enhance outcomes by providing access to NICE recommended most-effective interventions (varenicline, vaping and combination nicotine replacement therapy) and providing flexible, individualised discharge pathways.PMID:36216401 | DOI:10.1136/bmjresp-2022-001334
