#AllOurHealth - Wednesday 17th February 2021 6pm (GMT Standard Time)
Smoking & Tobacco - UoH
If you haven't joined in a tweet chat before it's very simple. Here's a guide Tweet
Chat Details
fHosted by WeNurses using #AllOurHealth
Tweetchat times will be split into three groups organised by birthday:
Group A - January to April Birthdays take place from 6:00pm - 6:30pm
Group B - May to August Birthdays take place from 6:45pm - 7:15pm
Group C - September to December Birthdays take place from 7:30pm - 8:00pm
Smoking is not a lifestyle choice but a chronic relapsing condition needing treatment. This is recognised by the government's commitment for the NHS in England to become smokefree. Supporting smokers in contact with the healthcare system to quit is a prevention priority in the NHS Long Term Plan and every health and care professional has a role to play.
As a healthcare professional, you are best placed to motivate and support smokers on their quit journey. Smokers expect healthcare professionals to ask about their smoking.
All healthcare professionals should identify and refer smokers using the method known as Very Brief Advice (VBA) which has 3 components - 'Ask, Advise and Act':
1. Ask and record smoking status: is the patient a smoker, ex-smoker or non-smoker?
2. Advise on the best way of quitting: the best way of stopping smoking is with a combination of stop smoking aids and specialist support.
3. Act on patient response: build confidence, give information, refer and prescribe.
Different approaches suit different people so if the first thing a smoker tries does not help, they should try another way. We've published guidance HERE to support you in your conversations with patients on what method to choose.
All health and care professionals should be:
* aware of latest guidance and interventions on supporting people to stop smoking
* able to access learning and development opportunities to support smokers to quit
* able to support smokers to access local referral and care pathways to stop smoking support
* able to provide feedback to local commissioners and providers where services are working well and where there are problems accessing support for smokers who want to quit.
Here are the questions that we will be exploring during this tweetchat:
Question 1:
Why is it important in your specific role to ask people about their smoking status?
What opportunities do you have to deliver very brief advice on smoking?
Question 2:
How are you going to increase your knowledge and confidence to talk to patients about their smoking?
[Have you completed the free NCSCT online module on providing very brief advice?]
Question 3:
Do you know how to refer smokers in your area for specialist support to quit?
Question 4:
What can we do to embed the treatment of tobacco dependency into our services?
Question 5:
What one action can you take to help your patients stop smoking following this Tweetchat?
Smoking and tobacco can be quite an emotive topic, especially in social media spaces. Our top tips for engaging in sensitive topics in social media are:
- Think before you post
- Respect other people's perspectives
- It's ok to disagree but do so professionally
- Remember social media is a conversation and no post / comment should be taken in isolation
- Ask for clarification / context to someone's post if needed
- Remember just because social media is instant this doesn't mean you have to be

Chat Summary
You can see from the engagement well above that the students are now not simply responding to prosed questions but discuss each other's answers too.
Some of the answers on the lively chats can be seen below:
Students chatted about how they could increase their knowledge beyond the information provided within the All Our Health framework, many had completed the NCSCT eLearning and found it very useful...
It can be a bit of a stretch to ask students about changing practice and a huge leap to talk about where change might add value to how whole services are provided, but they rose to the challenge and clearly have taken some of the key drivers and challenges on board in service planning for smoking...
Chatting about things on Twitter is clearly a great way to share ideas and learn new things, but it is essential to this with the intention of carrying the new learning into practice. The Hull students came up with some great actions from the chat that anybody practicing could adopt, we have just shared a few below...
Post Chat Comments
After the chat you may like to add a reflection, add some questions, or maybe you've made a change from something you leant on the chat...well now you can with "post chat comments" below.
You'll need to be logged into via Twitter from the main menu, then you can share your post chat comments...

As a health professional , i would listen and motivate them to adapt to new ways that will help them quit smoking. This would be a gradual process until it is achieved. #AllOurHealth |

@WeLearnOutLoud It's important to know everything we can possibly know about a patient. It may answer questions about things they're presenting with, and it's important for them to know the support available should they want to stop. We can't support people without all the info #AllOurHealth |
|
@Jobee4t
17 February 2021 18:05
|
|
@WeLearnOutLoud #AllOurHealth It's important to find out if a patient smokes, as they may want to stop. Hospitals and health services also reach a large population of the public who smoke |
|
@WeLearnOutLoud
17 February 2021 18:08
|
|
@stndemi @Jobee4t do you think you should be explaining why patients might consider stopping, or asking if they have tried and what their barriers might be or are? #AllOurHealth |
|
@stndemi
17 February 2021 18:08
|
|
@Jobee4t @WeLearnOutLoud Absolutely, but also because it may be vital for their care. I'd be interested to see the stats for how many people admitted to hospital are smokers. #AllOurHealth |
|
@WeLearnOutLoud
17 February 2021 18:10
|
|
QUESTION 2 How are you going to increase your knowledge and confidence to talk to patients about their smoking? #AllOurHealth UoH Group A https://t.co/TajNjUZa0w |
|
@Jobee4t
17 February 2021 18:10
|
|
@WeLearnOutLoud @stndemi Yes we can only find out if a patient wishes to stop smoking if we ask and then once we're aware of the patients needs/wants we can then support them if needed #AllOurHealth |
|
@stndemi
17 February 2021 18:11
|
|
@WeLearnOutLoud @Jobee4t I think coaching would be a more appropriate term than 'explaining why'. You can explain why the sky is blue, but it doesn't mean people are going to listen to it. It's all in the delivery and asking that all important why question. #AllOurHealth |
|
@WeLearnOutLoud
17 February 2021 18:12
|
|
@stndemi @Jobee4t it has been on a 5% increase recently accoring to NHS Digital a few years back https://digital.nhs.uk/news-and-events/news-archive/2016-news-archive/hospital-admissions-estimated-to-be-attributable-to-smoking-go-up-by-5-per-cent-in-ten-years #AllOurHealth |

@WeLearnOutLoud By making sure I am all up to date with training and attending more support sessions if needed to build up my knowledge #AllOurHealth |
|
@Jobee4t
17 February 2021 18:15
|
|
@WeLearnOutLoud #AllOurHealth I feel I can increase my confidence by completed the NCSCT training and also utilising the guidance for conversations with patients. Increasing my knowledge will increase my confidence. |
|
@stndemi
17 February 2021 18:16
|
|
@WeLearnOutLoud There are free courses around how to aid people in stopping smoking and talking about it. Practice makes perfect, talk to friends, relatives etc. Every little helps, even if only one thing we say is taken in, that's better than nothing. #AllOurHealth |
|
@stndemi
17 February 2021 18:17
|
|
@VickyCoxon6 @WeLearnOutLoud Agree, I think it's one of those things that the more you actually do it, the more confident you are! #AllOurHealth |
|
@MassiveBio
17 February 2021 18:17
|
|
@stndemi @WeNurses It’s definitely up for interpretation. I think once you haven’t smoked for as long as you smoked you would be a nonsmoker. For long term smokers maybe that wouldn’t apply! #AllOurHealth |
|
@WeLearnOutLoud
17 February 2021 18:18
|
|
@Jobee4t Sounds like a plan! Don't forget to add that to your weLearn MyActions :) #AllOurHealth |
|
@Jobee4t
17 February 2021 18:19
|
|
@stndemi @WeLearnOutLoud #AllOurHealth Yes and also signposting people to the relevant websites and services that are available for their own education. |

QUESTION 3 What can we do to embed the treatment of tobacco dependency into our services? #AllOurHealth UoH Group A https://t.co/dbFko7Z3Zt |
|
@Jobee4t
17 February 2021 18:20

|
|
@Jobee4t Brilliant :) #AllOurHealth |
|
@Jobee4t
17 February 2021 18:23
|
|
@WeLearnOutLoud #AllOurHealth We can embed tobacco dependency into our services using MECC and utilising time we have with patients to ask the questions and provide the information |
|
@stndemi
17 February 2021 18:24
|
|
@WeLearnOutLoud It's an addiction and should be treated as such. Taking the time to find out how each patient is feeling and if there's anything they want to talk about. Build that rapport and discuss the support available and what they need. Quitting alone is hard. #AllOurHealth |
|
@Lizzie96331020
17 February 2021 18:24
|
|
@WeLearnOutLoud Nicotine replacement therapy, One-to-one and group stop smoking sessions, clinics phone apps #AllOurhealth |

@Vuyiswa72340752
17 February 2021 18:25
|
|
@WeLearnOutLoud some patients will reluctant to ask for help to quit smoking, some may not be aware of the support and services available to help them quit and some may not be aware or may underestimate the dangers to health associated with smoking #AllOurHealth |

@WeLearnOutLoud #AllOurHealth again ?? |
|
@stndemi
17 February 2021 18:26
|
|
@WeLearnOutLoud Discuss their options and signpost them to the support they feel is best for them. It's important to let the patient make the decisions that they feel are best suited to them. They should be a part of their own care. #AllOurHealth |
|
@Lizzie96331020
17 February 2021 18:27

@WeLearnOutLoud As a MH student it's important because smoking actually increases your chance of depression & increases stress & anxiety #allourhealth |

@WeLearnOutLoud We should take every possible opportunity to promote health and prevent ill health, but also smoking may be an aggravating factor for their current health visit. #MECC #allourhealth |

@Jasmine50977999

@WeLearnOutLoud Its important to find this out because you can then acknowledge and advise them on better health decisions for now and in the future #AllOurHealth |

@WeLearnOutLoud It is important as it increases the chances of many illnesses& can cause different health complications #AllOurHealth |

@stndemi

One last thought before I sign off. Helping people stop smoking is important, and it’s a big public health problem. However, it’s important to treat the person as a whole, find out how they’re feeling and what they need rather than just pushing an agenda. #AllOurHealth #WeNurses |
|
@WaudbyClaire
17 February 2021 18:48
|
|
@WeLearnOutLoud It is our role to support and promote a healthy lifestyle therefore it is important to find out an individuals smoking status. #AllOurHealth |
|
@emma_student
17 February 2021 18:48
|
|
@WeLearnOutLoud It is important in my role to use every opportunity to ask people about their smoking status which can take 30 seconds, as they are twice as likely to succeed if given help by a professional, each brief encounter is an opportunity to plant a seed #allourhealth |

@StudentNurseTil
17 February 2021 18:49
|
|
@WeLearnOutLoud Smoking can be a contributor towards the ill health. Also if they smoke a lot in a day. It’s a good way of opening the conversation around cutting down or stopping. #AllOurHealth |
|
@WeLearnOutLoud
17 February 2021 18:49
|
|
@emma_student do you think that there are many 30 seconds spare with patients.... tricky to know yet maybe :) #AllOurHealth |
|
@a_nur17
17 February 2021 18:50
|
|
@WeLearnOutLoud I believe it is important in my role as it will allow me to know that individual better and help them out in the most effective way possible. It will make it easier to promote the public health as I'll know the message it being delivered to the correct audience. #AllOurHealth |
|
@emma_student
17 February 2021 18:50
|
|
@WaudbyClaire @WeLearnOutLoud It is, I think we can sometimes wrongly assume that people already know the best way to quit and choose not to #allourhealth |
|
@WeLearnOutLoud
17 February 2021 18:51
|
|
@StudentNurseTil Do you think talking about cutting down is easier than going straight in with talking about quitting? would it lead to a quitting support conversation naturally? #AllOurHealth |
|
@emma_student
17 February 2021 18:51
|
|
@PhilNeal19 @WeLearnOutLoud Yes, that would certainly make having the conversation easier, as the conversation will be naturally directed to this #allourhealth |
|
@Soph_H_0802
17 February 2021 18:52
|
|
@WeLearnOutLoud @emma_student I think it is important to find time for questions such as these, as a persons smoke status affects their chances of needing hospital care in the future, we may be aiding them in preventing further illness #AllOurHealth |

I've completed module 13 of 25 on University of Hull #AllOurHealth 2020 #AllOurHealth http://welearn.wecommunities.org/PHEuni2020/sharebadge/2414?token=80249020-1da5-4a80-b023-2c0cc9874554 |
|
@WeLearnOutLoud
17 February 2021 18:54
|
|
@Soph_H_0802 @emma_student So it is more about seeing the importance of the 30 seconds... that's a good take away :) #AllOurHealth |
|
@Soph_H_0802
17 February 2021 18:54
|
|
@WeLearnOutLoud @StudentNurseTil I think this completely depends on the person, the different methods of quitting smoking (or cutting down) each work for different people #AllOurHealth |
|
@LauraR_StN
17 February 2021 18:54
|
|
@WeLearnOutLoud @StudentNurseTil Someone I know was on Champix a while back to help him quit and he was told to continue smoking for a while and cut down gradually because it would be easier for him to quit in the long run #AllOurHealth |

@WeLearnOutLoud
17 February 2021 18:55

QUESTION 2 How are you going to increase your knowledge and confidence to talk to patients about their smoking? #AllOurHealth UoH Group B https://t.co/I1kro9Y7oO |
|
@StudentNurseTil
17 February 2021 18:55
|
|
@WeLearnOutLoud I think so. Because if someone is willing to cut down on their smoking then they may be open to the idea of stopping for good. It’s worked for me in the past when speaking to them about it. #AllOurHealth |
|
@Rebecca62473967
17 February 2021 18:56
|
|
@WeLearnOutLoud Making sure my knowledge is up to date and I am aware of the resources available. But also make sure I am sensitive in my approach as this might be more successful #AllOurHealth |
|
@emma_student
17 February 2021 18:56
|
|
@WeLearnOutLoud Absolutely yes, I think this was displayed in some of the information we have been shown this week. 30 seconds can safe hours or years of healthcare dependancy in later life #allourhealth |
|
@Soph_H_0802
17 February 2021 18:56

@Gembopinx
17 February 2021 18:57

|
@WeLearnOutLoud By making sure I am literacy aware on the harm that smoking does to our health, that way I can promote the benefits of quitting also. #Allourhealth #welearn |
|
@LauraR_StN
17 February 2021 18:57
|
|
@WeLearnOutLoud We can use it as a way to start the conversation around stopping smoking, but it can also give us an idea of whether they would be more likely to develop or currently suffer from smoking related illnesses that might need treatment #AllOurHealth |
|
@StudentNurseTil
17 February 2021 18:57
|
|
@LauraR_StN @WeLearnOutLoud I found a lot of people when told to stop. They go through the cycle of change a lot more times but that’s just in my experience. #allourhealth |

@WaudbyClaire
17 February 2021 18:57

@WeLearnOutLoud By completing the NCSCT online module to gain more knowledge and confidence in talking to my patients. I feel positive in this area being an ex smoker myself :) #AllOurHealth |

I will increase my knowledge and confidence around the subject of smoking by using the resources and sites on the internet such as NHS sites and the government site to learn about statistics so that i can educate others so they make the best decisions for them. #AllOurHealth |

@Savanna78205845
17 February 2021 18:58

@WeLearnOutLoud You’ve got to look at the whole aspect of an individuals, including things like their background aswell as their health, asking an individual about smoking will allow you to give more of a person centred care as your getting to know the individual #allourhealth |

@WeLearnOutLoud Stress is a huge factor in smoking, sometimes it is hard to find a replacement for cigarettes when the rest of your life is still the same. As well as feeling like you are alone in quitting, when this shouldn't be the case for anyone #AllOurHealth |

@WeLearnOutLoud we must be aware of someones smoking status as it can be used as an indicator for someone's health. Smoking affects the whole body, so knowing that someone smokes can help us understand what is causing the ill health of the patient #AllOurHealth |

@Soph_H_0802
17 February 2021 19:08

@WeLearnOutLoud Honestly, I think progress is already being made, as help on quitting smoking is promoted in say the doctors' surgery and hospitals. Though often, it is left to the patient to reach out for support, and that can be a massive leap #AllOurHealth |

@WeLearnOutLoud The training was mainly videos which were very relatable, with evidence to back them up, they were really self explanatory and very genuine, advising not to ask if they want to stop was quite an eye opener as they may then get defensive to why this has not occurred #allourhealth |

@WeLearnOutLoud We need to make it known that there is help out there for people who want to quit smoking. Promote quitting services and signposting our patients to services that can help. It needs to be treated as a priority, an achievable goal to helping patients to quit smoking! #AllOurHealth |

@emma_student @EmmaKearns15 I think addiction is more complicated as most addicts are aware of the risks but they need support in changing behaviour. Even though it appears they are making a choice to smoke it is not so clear cut #AllOurHealth |

@WeLearnOutLoud I completed the NCSCT online module and found it really interesting that asking the patient if they want to stop isn’t part of the VBA. By completing further training, researching and by having these conversations I hope to build my confidence further #AllOurHealth |

@WeLearnOutLoud I will increase my knowledge by completing the free course with NCSCT. And read any other useful information that will be helpful. #AllOurHealth |

Around 3 to 4 in 100 people remain non-smokers after a year when they choose to make an unassisted quit attempt. #AllOurHealth #WeLearn |

@WeLearnOutLoud I have seen a few free online courses aimed for professionals that do just that - ways to open up and talk about smoking and educate you on different methods that can be used to suit the patient #AllOurHealth |

@WeLearnOutLoud By doing extra training and research about the topic can help us become more confident when talking about this topic to someone who smokes! Having the training in how to communicate to the individual can help and become more effective to those #AllOurHealth |

@WeLearnOutLoud I liked the NCSCT online training. The section of the video with prompts, like a script, is very useful to learn in practice. Gives confidence that as nurses we are saying the right words when talking to patients #AllOurHealth |

@stn_seg @WeLearnOutLoud I agree Shan, Education and furthering our knowledge is one of the main ways we can help advise our patients if we don't know or have limited knowledge on the subject we are unable to provide the best care for our patients. #AllOurHealth |

@WeLearnOutLoud Training on smoking cessation will help increase knowledge on how to talk to patients about smoking. Also making every contact count to talk about smoking will help boost confidence #AllOurHealth |

@ZoeLianne1 @WeLearnOutLoud I also think without beig armed with that knowledge we will feel far less confident having those conversations #AllOurHealth |

@sky_prestidge @WeLearnOutLoud I agree Sky, keeping up to date on new information is so important to make sure we are directing patients to the correct departments and giving them the most up to date resources to help them. #AllOurHealth |

QUESTION 3 What can we do to embed the treatment of tobacco dependency into our services? #AllOurHealth UoH Group C https://t.co/o2DZJIjoYw |

@stn_seg @WeLearnOutLoud Definitely, confidence comes with practice and knowledge, the more knowledge and practice we have the more our confidence will grow. #AllOurHealth |

@WeLearnOutLoud We can embed this by following the VBA guidelines and MECC, and by encouraging other colleagues to do the same. By letting patients know we are there, even if they’re not ready yet it can hopefully help to remove at least one of the barriers to stopping #AllOurHealth |
|

@WeLearnOutLoud By gaining extra knowledge through additional training, keeping upto date with any new development opportunities. Also by talking to colleagues for any feedback they may have. #AllOurHealth |

@sky_prestidge @WeLearnOutLoud Really important point Sky! Important to have an understanding of the ‘quitting landscape’ locally. What support /services are available, etc. Knowing how to refer into them is essential. (You’ll find local smokefree networks on Twitter too!) #AllOurHealth |

@sky_prestidge @WeLearnOutLoud Definitely and sometimes hearing someone else's ideas and approaches can give you a better understanding of a situation especially if they have been through it and you haven't. #AllOurHealth |

@WeLearnOutLoud My workplace use the health improvement profile assessment. Ask a lot of general health questions and include smoking status. This I find very helpful to engage patients in talking about smoking #AllOurHealth |

@WeLearnOutLoud

And finally ... What one action can you take to help your patients stop smoking? #AllOurHealth UoH Group C https://t.co/Gb5gYvKL0n |

@stn_seg @WeLearnOutLoud I agree, making sure patients know we are here for them when they need us is very important, they may not feel ready to quit but if they know where to access & who to speak to should they want to stop, it will ease the stress of not feeling they have any support. #AllOurHealth |
|
@Kodwokoomson

@WeLearnOutLoud Advise them on harmful effects on smoking and the health benefits of quitting. Signpost to local support network available #AllOurHealth |
|

@WeLearnOutLoud I’m going to do more research and see what courses are available and make sure I relevant information out to patients. #AllOurHealth |

@WeLearnOutLoud Ensure that ask, advise, act is part of every health professionals training. I notice on the NCSCT video, a patient nearly left their appointment before being asked. Quickly the GP remembered. That may have saved the patient's life #AllOurHealth |

@samanth88021421

@WeLearnOutLoud We could try to embed the treatment of tobacco dependency in our services just by highlighting support in various ways they can deal with by quitting smoking. #AllOurHealth |
|
@Heather26138850
17 February 2021 20:00

@WeLearnOutLoud Enrole onto more free online courses to broaden my knowledge and skills. Also use social media to provide good quality information to educate the public #AllOurHealth |
|
@ZoeLianne1
17 February 2021 20:00

|
@WeLearnOutLoud Listen to them & communicate with them to make sure you can tailor your advice to support them as an individual rather than as a smoker. Giving them information & Resouces can help patients feel less anxious about their decision. #AllOurHealth |

@WeLearnOutLoud One action: research specialist support in my locality and make sure I keep having these conversations to build confidence and embed it into my practice #AllOurHealth |
|
@MarieFitzgeral1

@WeLearnOutLoud Advise that there is support out there and that this journey is not done in isolation #AllOurHealth |

@WeLearnOutLoud To let patients know of all the services available to them, making sure to listen and support aswell. By having posters, leaflets and other advertisements present, it makes individuals aware of the help they can recieve. #AllOurHealth |

@sky_prestidge

@WeLearnOutLoud By listening and asking relevant questions so you can advise them to make the best decisions for their health allowing them to take control #AllOurHealth |
|
@samanth88021421
17 February 2021 20:04
|
|
@WeLearnOutLoud The action is by giving advice on various ways to help them quit smoking by the use of nicotine patches and gum and other support. The change of their lifestyle and to recognise the triggers when they need a cigarette. #AllOurHealth |
