title: 'Would you like to help quit'?
abstract: Despite a steep fall in smoking rates, tobacco use is still a major cause of non-communicable diseases, responsible in the U.K. for one in five of all cancers. Globally and in the U.K., poorer people are most at risk. However, NHS cessation services are effective. Nurses should be prepared to ask patients about smoking, and be explicit about the damage it causes.
