Tobacco Cessation- Module
Needs Assessment
A lifestyle medicine evidence review was conducted by the American College of Preventive Medicine in 2009. It compiled the scientific evidence that supports the need for increased competence in lifestyle medicine among healthcare providers and predicted an increased demand for training in delivering lifestyle interventions. It argued that greater provider competence might lead to improved patient outcomes.

Although the benefits of tobacco cessation are well known and intervention resources are readily available, many practitioners hesitate to introduce tobacco cessation tools into their practice due to lack of training on effective methods. After receiving training, practitioners will be able to offer tobacco cessation services to their patients in an effective manner.
