Summary

This trialaims to replicate a successful smoking cessation program in 3 different patient groups to help them quit smoking.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for hospitalized cigarette smokers over the age of 18 who are being discharged back to their homes. Participants must have a phone number and be able to communicate in English. It's not open to those without a phone or who can't speak English.
What is being tested?
The study is testing two types of smoking cessation services: Basic Care and Enhanced Care, across different patient groups including psychiatric inpatients and non-psychiatric patients at various hospitals affiliated with MUSC.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial focuses on smoking cessation services rather than medication, it does not list specific side effects like drug trials do. However, quitting smoking can lead to withdrawal symptoms such as irritability, cravings, and difficulty concentrating.
