During the last year Daytona State College hosted three, free AHEC/QSN Quit Smoking Now tobacco-cessation, six-week programs using NE Florida AHEC-trained facilitators. In addition, a clean-up effort to pick up cigarette butts on our Daytona Beach campus took place in the fall of 2009.
The Fitness and Aquatic Center Coordinator, Nancy Homan, and Fitness Specialist, John Tosi, have been attending Northeast Florida AHEC’s Healthcare Provider Training Series and participating in online education modules. In addition the College’s nursing curriculum includes a 3-hour AHEC tobacco skills training for health care professionals. These activities have proven to be a good start to our tobacco cessation education effort.
