Pregnancy counselors see a large range of women — some of whom are smokers. If you are uncertain how to address this community, SCRIPT® can offer assistance.
SCRIPT® has been successfully implemented into a variety of public health systems that serve pregnant women. These systems include prenatal care offices and clinics, WIC, and home visiting programs such as Healthy Start.
Most women know that smoking is not a healthy behavior, but may be uncomfortable admitting nicotine use to a healthcare staff member.
SCRIPT® was developed to make that conversation easier, and to assist health care providers in initiating it. SCRIPT® provides motivation, counseling and materials to assist pregnant women in their efforts to quit smoking. But it also supplies health care providers with the confidence and training they need to be successful at this task.
Help your patients and their babies avoid the many health issues caused by exposure to nicotine and smoking.
