Cigarette Smoking With Serious Mental Illness: US Provider and Veteran Beliefs About How to Quit
Comparing the perspectives of providers and veterans from the same setting is a rare contribution to tobacco treatment literature. Provider and veteran attitudes about quitting smoking interacted and led smoking to persist unaddressed despite veteran interest in quitting. Providers may benefit from education about how to effectively treat smoking to dispel myths that impede treatment and feel more comfortable integrating smoking treatment into routine care.
