Quitting smoking is a journey - patients need support to curb the urge.

Smokers who get help from a health care provider or trained counselor triple their chances of quitting. Encourage patients to participate in Delaware Tobacco Prevention and Control Program's free cessation services, including counseling by phone, in person, or through QuitNow.net.
