“…Three of the studies stated that a dedicated institutional service was a facilitator for delivery, perhaps because practitioners felt confident in their knowledge of where to direct patients who wished to stop smoking 40 . Clear referral of smokers to a specialist smoking advisor, was cited multiple times as a facilitator to delivery and centres indicated that tobacco treatment programs could be improved through employment of tobacco treatment specialists 34 . Further research into the success rates of specialists could further enhance the argument for employment of these professionals in all centres providing cancer care.…”

“…One possible step in ensuring that smoking is identified and treated with all patients involves the assessment and documentation of tobacco use. Although the significance of tobacco use being noted in the medical record as a 'vital sign' has long been recognized [11] and the immediate impact of smoking on cancer makes this documentation even more valuable in the oncology setting, less than half of all cancer centers have integrated this simple step into clinical care [6].…”

“…A recent survey by the National Cancer Institute Cancer Centers revealed that fewer than half of the respondents reported having an employee dedicated to providing tobacco treatment services [6]. With a few exceptions, the resources and treatment models for smoking cessation across cancer centers are currently inadequate [7].…”

“…However, there is minimal research on tobacco treatment services offered at these facilities, and it is an area that requires further study (Singhi et al, 2015). One available study (Goldstein, Ripley-Moffitt, Pathman, & Patsakham, 2013) reported that about half of NDCCs offered tobacco treatment services, and one-quarter had a program to refer patients (in addition to the services offered). Health People 2020 identified increasing tobacco screening efforts and tobacco cessation counselling in hospital ambulatory care settings as means to decrease tobacco use (Office of Disease Prevention and Health Promotion, 2017).…”

Background: Many people with cancer continue smoking despite evidence that it negatively effects cancer treatment, worsens chemotherapy toxicity, and increases risk for a second cancer.Aims: We examined tobacco treatment services offered to cancer patients at hospitals providing oncology services, including National Cancer Institute (NCI)-Designated Cancer Centers (NDCCs).Methods: We examined survey data of 6,400 U.S. hospitals from 2008 to 2015 to determine the manner in which tobacco treatment/cessation program services were provided among NDCCs and non-NDCC hospitals providing oncology services (HPOs).Results: From 2008 to 2015, 784 responses from NDCCs and 18,281 responses from HPOs were received. NDCCs (86%) reported significantly higher tobacco treatment/cessation programs owned by the hospital compared to HPOs (68%) (p < 0.001). Among NDCCs, there was a significant increasing trend of tobacco treatment/cessation programs reported owned by the hospital, the health system, or other contractual mechanism from 2008 to 2015 (p = 0.03).Conclusions: More than 80% of oncology providing hospitals report providing tobacco cessation programs, with higher percentages reported in NDCCs. As hospitals implement smoking cessation programs, partnerships between hospitals and cancer coalitions could help bring tobacco cessation activities to communities they both serve, and link discharged patients to these cessation resources so they can continue quit attempts that they initialised while hospitalised.
