6th October 2015 - New report - NHS Smoking Cessation Service Statistics (Scotland) 1st April 2014 to 31st March 2015

The national smoking cessation monitoring analyses produced by ISD are used to provide evidence of the reach and success of NHS smoking cessation services in Scotland. They are also used to monitor the smoking cessation HEAT (Health Improvement, Efficiency, Access and Treatment) target for the NHS. The related HEAT target for NHSScotland in 2014/15 was to achieve at least 12,005 successful 3 month quits through smoking cessation services in the most deprived areas. This short report looks at performance against this target and provides supplementary information to the annual monitoring report (calendar year) published on 30th June 2015.
