QUIT Victoria and the Pharmaceutical Society of Australia (PSA) are launching a new free training session for pharmacists in Victoria to help their patients quit smoking.
The workshops will be held across metro and regional Victoria between Jun and Sep and will equip pharmacists with the latest evidence-based approach to smoking cessation care.
The courses will train pharmacists to provide a 3-stage brief intervention (Ask, Advise, Help) for smoking cessation, to advise on pharmacotherapy use and to refer to, and work with, Quitline for intensive behavioural support.
