Addressing the prevalence of smoking and vaping in our communities presents a significant public health challenge. To support our member services in their tobacco control initiatives, AH&MRC is working with other stakeholders to ensure the ACCHO workforce has access to appropriate training and resources that can be utilised to support those wanting to quit smoking and vaping.
Why Your Input Matters
We want you to tell us what you need! So, as well as talking to many of you in person, we have developed a short survey to gather information aimed to ensure future training programs and resources are tailored to the needs of healthcare workers in ACCHOs. By completing this survey, you can help AH&MRC identify potential opportunities to increase the success of smoking and vaping cessation strategies and resources used in communities.
What the Survey Covers
The survey has 3 sections designed to gather your insights including:
- Resources and Training: questions about the current resources available to assist clients in quitting smoking or vaping and what additional resources could improve the services’ capacity to support them.
- Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT): questions about funding, training, and support related to NRT products.
- Opportunity for you to provide any additional feedback and/or suggestions.
How to Complete the Survey:
Completing the survey is straightforward and it will take just a few minutes of your time.
