Summary
Brief summary
The efficacy of a smoking cessation intervention initiated during a mental health hospital admission and continued post discharge will be assessed via randomised controlled trial. At 12 months post-test, it is hypothesised that participants receiving the intervention will have a 10% points higher 7-day point prevalence abstinence from smoking (20%) as compared to participants that did not (10%), and a 4% points higher prevalence of prolonged abstinence (5%, as compared to 1%).
