Quit support for free – refer!

We know mental health consumers need more support to help quit smoking. Queensland community mental health services have access to a Quitline program that includes four support calls and 12 weeks offree nicotine replacement therapy. We know consumers referred to this program have quit rates much better than going ‘cold turkey’.
