Abstract
What Is Known on the Subject
Smoking rates have decreased in the general population but remain high among people with severe mental illness (SMI).
What the Paper Adds to Existing Knowledge
An individualized smoking cessation program was tested with 99 adults with SMI.
The program showed it is possible to help people with SMI smoke fewer cigarettes and reduce nicotine addiction.
Customized smoking cessation programs are essential for those with high nicotine dependence and mental health challenges.
Implications for Practice
Mental health services should offer tailored tobacco cessation programs because these programs can improve the health of people with mental illness who smoke.
It is important for mental health services to follow government guidelines and provide evidence-based support.
Introduction
Despite significant reductions in smoking rates in the general population over recent decades, smoking rates remain relatively unchanged among people with SMI.
Aim
To evaluate the feasibility and preliminary effectiveness of the Keep Quitting in Mind pilot program, an individualized smoking cessation program for people experiencing SMI.
Methods
In total, 99 adult participants with SMI and engaged with a community mental health service, participated in the intervention. The intervention included motivational interviewing and goal setting, in addition to provision of pharmaceutical aids (including nicotine replacement therapy).
Results
Analysis determined that the Keep Quitting in Mind pilot program was feasible in a public adult mental health service and participation in the program was associated with reductions in the number of cigarettes smoked daily and level of nicotine addiction.
Discussion
This real-world pilot program demonstrated feasibility and potential effectiveness in reducing smoking among adults with mental illness. Aligning with government guidelines, tailored smoking cessation programs are crucial due to high nicotine dependence and mental health complexities.
Implications for Practice
Given the high rates of cigarette smoking by people with mental illness and the cardiometabolic health risks associated with this, mental health services should consider adding evidence-based and bespoke tobacco cessation programs as part of core business.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Psychiatric and Mental Health Nursing is an international journal which publishes research and scholarly papers that advance the development of policy, practice, research and education in all aspects of mental health nursing. We publish rigorously conducted research, literature reviews, essays and debates, and consumer practitioner narratives; all of which add new knowledge and advance practice globally.
All papers must have clear implications for mental health nursing either solely or part of multidisciplinary practice. Papers are welcomed which draw on single or multiple research and academic disciplines. We give space to practitioner and consumer perspectives and ensure research published in the journal can be understood by a wide audience. We encourage critical debate and exchange of ideas and therefore welcome letters to the editor and essays and debates in mental health.
