Support Patients Through Their Quit Journey
Providing positive reinforcement and referrals to 802Quits increases your patient’s chances of quitting.
If your patient is ready to quit, there are tools to support a path that’s right for them. You can request free support materials to help your patients on their quit journey.
Help Patients Get Started:
- Refer your patient online now.
- Download a referral form for you or your patient to submit.
- Refer them to 802quits.org or have them call 1-800-QUIT-NOW to get started.
- Request free materials or provide them with free stress reduction quit tools and resources.
- Ask them about quitting nicotine at their next appointment.
- Find a quit workshop in the patient’s area. Most are located in nearby hospitals, clinics or are available online.
- Refer them to the MAT coordinator in your practice or department for additional quit support (if applicable).
Vermont Cessation Programs
There is no one-size-fits-all answer for your patients.
That’s why the Vermont Cessation Programs at 802Quits offer different paths. Patients can use more than one approach simultaneously.
NRT, including free patches, gum and lozenges, is available to adults 18+ and is recommended off-label with prescription for youth under 18 years old who are moderately or severely addicted to nicotine and motivated to quit.
