    Make Monday, May 10 the Day You Quit Smoking!

    Image001

    Quit Smoking Today — 6-8 p.m. Mondays.

    Get the information and support you need to succeed.

    We offered our first Smoking Cessation Class at SDMC on Jan 11, 2010.  It is offered every Monday night from 6 – 8 p.m. for six weeks.

    Classes were designed to provide information, education, and support for smokers that want to quit. (It is open to everyone in our community, FREE) 

    We have a three pronged approach emphasizing: preparation for quit day, quit day, and maintenance. 

    Our classes are very interactive and FUN!  Participants learn and practice ways to manage situations they will encounter while in the process of giving up smoking for life.

    Some of the areas we focus on include: side effects of nicotine withdrawal, what are some of the barriers to quitting, how to handle cravings, how to handle social situations, how to develop a support system, what are NRT’s, and what happens if I relapse, etc.

    People from various backgrounds join our class but all have one thing in common:  they smoke and want to quit.  Smoking is hazardous to your health and others, so it doesn’t matter how much you smoke…everyone should consider quitting!

    Please contact, Suzanne Much, RN, Oncology Resource Nurse/Nurse Navigator at Sutter Delta Medical Center if you would like to learn more about upcoming classes. Email: muchs@sutterhealth.org 

    Office phone: 925-779-3615 

    Or to register for the class call Michelle Keller, 925-779-3613 or kellem1@sutterhealth.org

    Remember Sutter Delta Medical Center, is your hospital close to home!
