Service

Where are we at? An honest review of current state• Acknowledgment of all the commitment and achievements to date

• Smokefree Aotearoa 2025 goal is fast approaching

• The Ministry of Health’s aim is to better foster innovation, maximise quality and effectiveness and to improve service delivery across all tobacco control services

• The Ministry has assessed how best to achieve this aim through the:• ongoing implementation of the health targets programme• activities of health promotion, leadership and advocacy

services• way services are delivered by cessation providers• better harnessing of innovation through flexible and

responsive service delivery

Current state: what do we know?

• SHORE/Whariki Research, Massey University Review of Tobacco Control Services 2014

• Tony Blakely et al, 2014 study published in the New Zealand Medical Journal

• Data sources:Census prevalence data NZ Health Survey Ministry of Health enrolment and quit outcomes data

• Stakeholder feedback• DHB needs assessment

While good progress is being made we are unlikely to achieve the goal if we continue with a ‘business as usual’ approach. Clearly more needs to be

done in particular amongst the priority populations if the Smokefree 2025 goal is to be achieved.

The role we ‘ALL’ play

A comprehensive set of tobacco control measures

We all have a critical role to play in achieving the Smokefree Aotearoa 2025 Goal

Reducing initiation

Increasing supported quit attempts

De-normalising smoking behaviour

Opportunity to better integrate so we have a seamless joined-up system with cessation services with health promotion and advocacy services to

improve outcomes for Maori, Pacific and hapu mama who smoke.

Interventions

Tax increase

Duty free restrictions

Plain packaging

Prevention

Mass media

Health care professionals prompting quit attempts - ABCs

Cessation support – supported quit attempts

Others? (harm reduction; alternative nicotine delivery devices; reduced nicotine tobacco)

Current State: Stop smoking services (face-to-face)Current services achieving volumes of 120 per FTE per annum

National summary for 01 Jul 2014 to 31 Dec 2014 (6 months)

No. of referrals 6845

Validated abstinence rates  

4 Week - total eligible 4449

4 Week - not a single puff1556

Validated abstinence rate at 4 weeks 35%

Around 70% of people relapse between 4 weeks and 1 year - therefore the 1 year quit rates can be estimated at around 10.5%

Barely 5% of current smokers use stop smoking services

What does this mean?

• The ‘business as usual’ approach will not get us to the Smokefree Aotearoa 2025 goal

• Current rates of stopping smoking are too slow to reach the 2025 goal

• Need more people making a quit attempt, preferably a supported quit attempt (increased likelihood of successful quit)

• Need to increase service utilisation
