  11. Brief Advice • Brief advice works – international evidence shows 2% of those given brief advice will quit • Wairarapa exceeds this with 10% of patients quitting – one in ten people!

  12. More stats • Brief Advice – provided to 83 % of patients (5524 / 6649) • 11% of patients were given or referred to cessation support • If we are to get to 25% referred, need to code another 980 patients

  13. Smart strategies needed going forward! • We are not going to get much further by continuing with just BA and cessation referrals • We need new inspiring approaches for both practitioners and patients • Motivational Interviewing for all health targets • Applicable for self management and long term conditions

  14. Motivational Interviewing • We need to promote and market this to get practitioners to training • We need to invest some funding into training • We think for our biggest practice with enrolled pop of 20 000 will require training at the practice.

  15.
