“That’s It – Learn to Quit” teaches a variety of methods to help individuals quit smoking.
The program consists of Wednesday meetings from 5:30-7 p.m. scheduled for Nov. 18, Dec. 2, 9, and 16 at the Center for Cancer Care at Griffin Hospital, 350 Seymour Ave.
“The goal of the program is to help you learn how to quit,” said Carrie O’Malley, RN, a co-coordinator of the program. “There are different methods of quitting and managing nicotine withdrawal. If one method didn’t work for you in the past we’ll help you understand all your options.”
Through group discussion and interactive activities, participants learn how to develop a quit plan that addresses their personal behaviors and habit.
Strategies to manage nicotine withdrawal, behaviors, triggers, and urges are all discussed as well as weight control and stress management.
Participants must be prepared to attend all four sessions.
To register for “That’s It – Learn to Quit,” call 203-732-1476.
