在行为健康环境中采用无烟政策是减少工作人员烟草使用以及精神疾病和行为障碍患者高烟草使用率的重要一步。研究表明,在实施无烟工作场所政策时,员工支持的重要性,但对员工烟草使用流行率以及政策采用前后员工态度的研究有限。德克萨斯州奥斯汀市行为健康和发育障碍地方当局 Integral Care 和奥斯汀公共卫生部门在实施 100% 无烟校园政策之前启动了全面的规划流程。目标是 1) 评估员工烟草使用情况和对无烟政策的态度,2) 向员工传达政策,3) 为员工提供教育和培训,4) 提供戒烟资源。 Integral Care 和奥斯汀公共卫生部门在政策实施前 6 个月以及实施后 6 个月和 12 个月进行了一项基于网络的员工调查,以衡量员工的烟草使用率和态度。从实施前到实施后,员工的烟草使用率和对无烟政策的态度都有显着改善。实施后 12 个月,员工烟草使用率从 27.6% 下降至 13.8%,政策支持率从 60.6% 上升至 80.3%。在行为健康环境中采用 100% 无烟校园政策可以显着减少员工烟草使用。在采用无烟工作场所政策之前,领导层应为员工提供教育、培训和戒烟支持,以确保成功。
The adoption of tobacco-free policies in behavioral health settings is an important step in reducing staff tobacco use as well as the high rates of tobacco use among people with mental illness and behavioral disorders. Studies have demonstrated the importance of staff support when implementing tobacco-free workplace policies, but there is limited research examining tobacco use prevalence among staff and staff attitude before and after policy adoption. Integral Care, a local authority for behavioral health and developmental disabilities in Austin, Texas, and Austin Public Health embarked on a comprehensive planning process before implementing a 100% tobacco-free campus policy. The objectives were 1) assess staff tobacco use and attitudes toward a tobacco-free policy, 2) communicate policy to staff, 3) provide staff education and training, and 4) provide cessation resources. Integral Care and Austin Public Health conducted a web-based employee survey 6 months before and 6 and 12 months after implementation of the policy to measure tobacco use prevalence and attitudes among employees. Employees had significant improvements in tobacco use prevalence and attitudes toward the tobacco-free policy from pre-implementation to post-implementation. Tobacco use prevalence among staff decreased from 27.6% to 13.8%, and support for the policy increased from 60.6% to 80.3% at 12 months post-implementation. Adoption of 100% tobacco-free campus policies in behavioral health settings can result in significant reductions in staff tobacco use. Leadership should provide staff with education, training, and cessation support before adoption of tobacco-free work site policies to ensure success.
