The project is raising knowledge by profiling MHNs’ role in tobacco harm reduction and combatting CVD, working with nurses to explore the barriers which stop effective smoking cessation strategies.

This is a free online training programme for MHNs, including webinars and podcasts. This webinar covers:

The facts – Cardiovascular Disease, smoking and CVD risks - the pathophysiology of how smoking causes atheroma and exacerbates the risk. Even though this may not be the motivation for people to stop it may help motivate them to continue on their smoking cessation journey.
