• Useful when delivered to a large population of people that smoke

But there are Challenges…..
The Target requires:
• Systems Change
• Behaviour Change

DHB Activity
• Training
• Systems development and Implementation
• Clinician buy-in
• Promotion of ABC

17,800Smokers offered Brief Advice and or cessation support in Q4 of 2009/10
![Page 12: Better Help for Smokers to Quit – Tobacco Health Target Helen Troke-Thomas Tobacco Policy and Implementation Team Ministry of Health](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062309/5697c0241a28abf838cd4626/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Progress in 2009/10
• Over 37,400 offers of brief advice in 2009/10. It is estimated that 1 in 40 of these smokers will have a successful quit attempt = approximately 935 successful quit attempts will occur because of this activity.
• Note that this is the minimum as many hospitalised smokers will also will receive NRT/cessation support which increases the quit success rate.

Progress in 2009/10
• Behaviour change amongst clinicians and cultural change in the hospital setting.
• Change in the profile of smoking status in the hospital setting – a clinical ‘vital sign’.
• Significant work and commitment to get systems and processes in place to make this happen.

Considerations
Disclosure and Target Gap
• Prevalence – not all smokers identified.
• Target Gap – not all smokers that are identified are provided with brief advice and help to quit.
![Page 15: Better Help for Smokers to Quit – Tobacco Health Target Helen Troke-Thomas Tobacco Policy and Implementation Team Ministry of Health](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062309/5697c0241a28abf838cd4626/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Considerations Cont...
Ethnicity
• Vital that all smokers are receiving ABC and that there are not ethnic disparities.
• Initial analysis gives us confidence that Maori and Pacific smokers are being offered brief advice as often as others.
• Ministry now collecting data from DHBs to undertake further ongoing analysis.

Based on what we have learned from 2009/10…….
….key predictors of success for health target achievement include:
•Commitment and Leadership from Senior Management and Senior Clinicians
•Training of staff
•Appropriate and accurate systems to record and report results
•Sustainability
