Abstract:
The Tobacco Coordination Unit of the Caen Normandy University Hospital assists smokers in their efforts to quit or reduce their tobacco consumption. In addition to the usual individual consultations, a consultation with a nurse-dietician pair is offered to patients for whom individual work on smoking and eating behaviors has reached an impasse. This unconventional approach allows for a more effective consultation method that is better adapted to certain types of patients treated in tobaccoology.
