Evaluation of the Current State of Quality of Care and Outcomes

w
Tobacco use remains a pressing public health concern, especially impacting adolescents and
SN
adults. Current care approaches for tobacco users involve various online resources aimed at
raising awareness and reducing tobacco use. While some healthcare organizations have
implemented tobacco control programs, the effectiveness of cessation initiatives remains
uncertain due to the lack of patient-centered interventions. Furthermore, the absence of
M
curriculum-based tobacco control in educational institutions contributes to increased tobacco

use among adolescents, leading to adverse health outcomes for both users and those exposed
to secondhand smoke. Further research is needed to assess the impact of existing interventions
on tobacco users and to address knowledge gaps in tobacco prevention and cessation.

Analyzing the Necessity of Health Policy Development and Advocacy
An assessment of current care quality and health outcomes highlights the urgent need for health
policy development and advocacy in addressing tobacco use. Escalating rates of tobacco use,
coupled with poor implementation of cessation plans and the lack of curriculum-based tobacco
control in schools, underscore the need for comprehensive policy reform. Secondhand smoke
exacerbates community health issues, necessitating revamped health policies to create
tobacco-free environments. Resistance to change among adults presents a significant barrier to
policy development and implementation, emphasizing the importance of advocacy efforts.
m
Justification for the Proposed Policy
co
The proposed policy aims to prevent tobacco use among adolescents and adults, ultimately
improving care quality and outcomes. Early prevention efforts targeting vulnerable age groups
s.
can help mitigate long-term health consequences associated with tobacco use. Additionally,
cessation plans, including educational counseling, may motivate active users to quit, thereby
ce
reducing the burden on healthcare systems. Although challenges such as resource constraints
and uncertainties exist, integrating the policy into institutional curricula with staff training can
enhance its effectiveness.
vi
Advocacy for Policy Development in Other Care Settings
er
Tobacco use spans various settings, necessitating health policies in hospitals, schools,
gs
workplaces, and homes. Implementing zero-tolerance policies in hospitals, imposing penalties in

educational institutions, and establishing workplace controls can foster tobacco-free
environments, benefiting community-wide health. Overcoming challenges in policy
in
implementation requires strategic solutions and stakeholder collaboration to address resistance

and resource constraints effectively.

Inter-professional Aspects of the Developed Policy

w
Inter-professional collaboration is essential for effective tobacco control and cessation initiatives.
SN
However, ambiguities in consensus among team members, communication barriers, and conflict
resolution strategies highlight the need for further research to ensure efficient collaboration and
achieve desired outcomes in the target population.
M
Conclusion
Tobacco use poses a pervasive threat across age groups, underscoring the importance of timely
policy development and implementation. This letter advocates for a health policy emphasizing
curriculum-based tobacco control for adolescents and cessation plans for adults. Further
