Title: Maximizing the Power of Partnerships: Engaging Smokers and the Mental Health Community


1
Maximizing the Power of Partnerships Engaging
Smokers and the Mental Health Community
  • Steven A. Schroeder, M.D., Director
  • Smoking Cessation Leadership Center
  • NCTOH, October 2007

2
The Smoking Cessation Leadership Center
  • Began in 2003 as a Robert Wood Johnson National
    Program Office with a 10-million, five-year
    grant
  • Aimed at helping clinicians do a better job
    intervening with tobacco users
  • Additional funding from VA, American Legacy
    Foundation
  • New foray into behavioral health arena, from
    Legacy grant

3
SCLCs Aim
  • We want more people who want to quit smoking to
    get the help and support they need to succeed
  • Access to cessation tools and resources needs to
    be widened for all groups
  • Health care providers have a special role, as the
    many partners we have already enlisted will
    attest
  • Examples dental hygienists, nurses, physicians,
    respiratory therapists, physician assistants,
    pharmacists
  • National smoking goals unachievable without
    involving mental health and substance abuse
    communities

Graph provided by the Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention. 1955 Current Population Survey
19652001 NHIS. Estimates since 1992 include
some-day smoking.
5
Smoking Prevalence Among Those with Mental Illness
  • Prevalence is 75 percent for those with either
    addictions and/or mental illness, as opposed to
    20.6 percent for the general population
  • In mental health settings, about 30-35 percent of
    the staff smoke

6
People with mental illness consume 44 of
cigarettes smoked in U.S.Breslau, 2003
7
The Extraordinary Toll
  • People with serious mental illness die 25 years
    earlier than the general population
  • Most attributed to smoking, obesity, substance
    abuse, and inadequate access to medical care
  • R. Manderscheid and C. Colton, April 2006, in
    Preventing Chronic Disease

8
National Mental Health Partnership for Wellness
and Smoking Cessation
  • Began at summit organized by the Smoking
    Cessation Leadership Center (SCLC) in March 2007
    in Virginia
  • Intended to develop national consensus among key
    leaders in mental health and smoking cessation
    focused on need to
  • Increase opportunities for wellness among mental
    health consumers and staff
  • Ensure that smoking cessation treatments and
    tools are readily available

9
National Mental Health Partnership for Wellness
and Smoking Cessation
  • Members include
  • 26 organizations and expanding
  • National mental health advocacy, governmental,
    consumer, and provider organizations and smoking
    cessation experts
  • Mission Statement
  • We the undersigned resolve to bring forth and
    lead a national partnership campaign to make
    health and wellness a priority for people with
    mental illnesses and for the providers who serve
    them. As a first and immediate focus, we commit
    ourselves to addressing the serious consequences
    of smoking and to emphasize smoking cessation in
    all mental health service delivery settings.

10
National Mental Health Partnership for Wellness
and Smoking Cessation
  • Reasons for Partnership
  • Approximately 50 of people with CMI are smokers
  • People with mental illness smoke almost half of
    all cigarettes produced and are half as likely to
    quit as smokers without mental illness
  • People with mental illness live 25 years fewer,
    on average, than the general population
  • Nearly half of all deaths from smoking occur
    among people with mental illness

  • 35 allow smoking on units
  • 19 allow an unrestricted number of smoke breaks
  • 23 are planning to change to more restrictive
    policies
  • 35 have more permissive policies for staff

28
Challenges Questions and Answers
  • Smoke breaks are one of the few opportunities we,
    as consumers, have to relate to staff as peers.
    Besides, smoking is our only pleasure. How can
    you take that away?
  • We appreciate that you want to spend time with
    staff outside of treatment. And we want to
    create healthy ways to do that. Smoking is an
    addiction. As a treatment facility, we can no
    longer support addiction by condoning smoking by
    consumers or staff. Furthermore we will work
    together, consumers and staff, to create new
    activity choices and opportunities that are both
    fun and healthy.

29
Questions and Answers (cont.)
  • Smoking calms down consumers. When they cant
    smoke, wont we experience complete mayhem?
  • Banning smoking in psychiatric hospitals actually
    reduces mayhem. Facilities that do not allow
    smoking report fewer incidents of seclusion and
    restraint and reduction in coercion and threats
    among patients and staff.

30
Questions and Answers (cont.)
  • Smoking is a personal choice. How can you take
    that away without some serious collective
    bargaining?
  • Historically unions have fought for safe working
    conditions. Internal documents show that tobacco
    companies have strategically marketed worker
    messages expounding upon the right to smoke.
    Yet, knowing cigarettes are loaded with toxic
    chemicals including 60 known carcinogens, Id
    rather we expend out energy working together on
    safety and health.

    treatment
  • Lack of advocating for treatment

46
  • Consumers Helping Others Improve their Condition
    by Ending Smoking

Does your mental health program offer any tobacco
treatment?
63
How easy was it to talk with a CTA about your
smoking compared to your psychiatrist/ mental
health professional?
64
1 month Follow-up Results
  • 86 response rate
  • 30 reported trying to quit at 1 month follow-up
  • 80 who had not tried to quit significantly
    reduced the number of cpd (11 vs 18 plt0.000)

65
Reduced Access to Tobacco Treatment
  • Tobacco dependence treatment should be given to
    all patients who smoke and are being seen by a
    psychiatrist
  • APA Practice Guidelines for Treatment of Patients
    with Nicotine Dependence, 1996
  • Nicotine dependence documented in 2 of mental
    health records
  • Only 1.5 of patients seeing a psychiatrists
    received treatment for smoking

Peterson 2003 Montoya 2004

76
Treating Tobacco in Addiction and Mental Health
Settings
  • Treatment can Work
  • 5 NRT options, Bupropion, Varenicline
  • Brief personalized feedback, education /
    counseling, MET, and Behavioral therapy
  • Fewer Studies of Nicotine Dependence and either
    Mental Illness or other Addictions
  • Abstinence versus Harm Reduction
  • Motivation Based Treatment Approach total
    abstinence may not be immediately achievable

77
Common ways to address tobacco in your mental
health clinic
  • Clinically
  • Motivation based treatment
  • Education at minimum Personalized Feedback
  • Medications and Therapy
  • Environmental Tobacco Issues
  • Forced abstinence inpatient - maintenance on NRT
  • Smoking in designated places at designated times
  • trigger monitoring and management
  • opportunities for behavioral disconnects
  • Staff Training EAP help for staff who smoke
  • Policy issues chart templates, require
    documentation, no staff-patient smoking, get CO
    monitor for units, etc

78
Motivation Based Treatment Approach
  • Engagement Empathy
  • Match Goals and Techniques to 5 Stages
  • Precontemplation, contemplation, preparation,
    action, and maintenance
  • Services matched to motivational levels
  • healthy living groups (Williams, et al)
  • contemplation vs action phase specific treatments
  • Link with Co-Occurring Disorder treatments
  • Nicotine Anonymous

79
Helping Less motivated patients Abstinence
versus Harm Reduction
  • Abstinence oriented studies patients are able to
    reduce the quantity and frequency of use
  • Many Mental Health staff prefer harm reduction
    approaches
  • Few formal studies of either long-term
    short-term harm reduction options
  • Clinical harm reduction approaches tried
  • reducing number of cigarettes
  • switching some NRT for some cigarettes
  • Long term NRT maintenance usage
  • behavioral disconnects (not smoke in house, in
    car, etc)
  • Concern compensatory change in smoking style to
    keep same nicotine levels track biomarkers (CO
    or cotinine levels)

80
Addressing motivation
  • Brief Interventions to increase motivation to
    seek treatment
  • Brief Personalized Feedback
  • Motivational Interviewing
  • Healthy Living Group Based and individual
    treatments to provide education and increase
    motivation to quit smoking

81
Healthy Living Groups
  • Learning about Healthy Living group treatment
  • Educational and motivational based intervention
  • Open ended format, rolling admission, and not
    time limited
  • Overall goal gain knowledge and live a healthier
    lifestyle
  • Sessions
  • information about risks associated with smoking
  • what is in a cigarette, benefits of quitting,
    ways to quit smoking, and general health
    lifestyle behaviors to assist in quitting.
  • Learn about related issues
  • nutrition, physical activity, and stress
    management
  • Clinical Educator Model of group facilitation
  • utilizing role-plays, concrete examples,
    exercises, and questions to assess learning. 20
    Sessions in manual.
  • CO Monitoring
  • Principals can also be used in individual
    counseling as well

82
Smoking Cessation Groups for individuals with
Schizophrenia
  • Work with Eden Evins at our Community Health
    Link site
  • Group Support and Bupropion/NRT
  • Many can quit however difficult to sustain.
  • From clinical experience, long-term outcomes
    improve with chronic treatment a model similar
    to treating psychiatric disorders
  • Evins, Cather, Culhane, Birnbaum et al, 2007

83
Tobacco Smoking Effects Some Psychiatric
Medication Blood Levels
  • Smoking induces the P450s 1A2 isoenzyme
    secondary to the polynuclear aromatic
    hydrocarbons
  • Smoking increases the metabolism of some
    medications
  • Haldol, Prolixin, Olanzapine, Clozapine,
    Mellaril, Thorazine, etc
  • Caffeine is metabolized through 1A2
  • CHECK for medication SE or relapse to mental
    illness with changes in smoking status
  • Nicotine does not change medication blood levels
    (2D6)
  • NRT doesnt effect medication blood levels
  • Nicotine may modulate cognition, psychiatric
    symptoms, and medication side effects

84
Tactics of Treatment
  • Medications
  • Start Bupropion two weeks prior to quit date
  • Start NRT Patch on quit date
  • PDR versus Clinical Practice
  • Use of NRT prior to quit date as a replacement
    for cigarettes
  • Use of Bupropion plus patch (plus gum, etc)
  • Dosage of NRT
  • Use of multiple NRT strategies (multiple patches,
    multiple NRTs)
  • Length of time on NRT or Bupropion

85
Other Tactics
  • Primary Psychiatric or other Addiction Medication
    choice
  • Intensity and type of psychosocial treatments
  • Tobacco Metabolism and Medications
  • Monitor side effects and dosage
  • Ongoing monitoring and reassessment
  • Critical periods first three days, first two
    weeks and first six months
  • CO, cotinine, and self-report of tobacco usage

86
NRT for Schizophrenics
  • More research needed placebo controlled
  • NRT in variety of routes of administration,
    variable doses and duration for schizophrenic
    patients
  • Higher dose transdermal patch (42mg) and trials
    of longer duration (24 weeks) Jill Williams et
    al, 2004
  • In heavy smokers, under dosing may be one of the
    reasons for the limited efficacy of transdermal
    nicotine
  • Blood cotinine levels at baseline and steady
    state measures for assessing adequacy of nicotine
    replacement

87
Nicotine Nasal Spray for Schizophrenia
  • NNS Rapid onset of action, intermittent dosing,
    and more immediate craving relief
  • Case series 12 schizophrenic smokers
  • failed prior treatments
  • well tolerated, 75 used at least 30 sprays per
    day, 25 continuously abstinence, 40 were three
    months abstinent, 25 substantial CO lowering
    (21 to 3)
  • The mean length of time with NNS was 255 days
    (range 2-811 days) and several used it for months
    prior to achieving abstinence
  • Williams, Ziedonis, Foulds, 9/04, Psych Services

88
Long-term NRT
  • The long term health effects of NRT are unknown
  • Felt to have less risk than chronic exposure to
    carbon monoxide and carcinogens.
  • Long term use of the patch has not been a
    problem.
  • Gum is almost never misused, thus lacking true
    abuse liability
  • Weaning of the gum usually requires only
    education and reassurance even in long term
    users.

89
What is a Clubhouse?
  • Basic Components of a Clubhouse
  • Work-Ordered Day, Employment, Evening, Weekend
    and Holiday Programs, Community Supports,
    Supported Education, Housing Support or Services,
    Outreach, Choice, Clubhouse Administration
    Operation, and Membership
  • Provide a variety of services and supports
  • Employment, Community Support Services, Outreach,
    Education, Housing, Health Promotion Activities,
    Advocacy, and Social Supports
  • Organized internationally by the International
    Center for Clubhouse Development (ICCD)

90
Genesis Club
  • Founded on the realization that recovery from
    serious mental illness must involve the whole
    person in a vital and culturally sensitive
    community
  • A restorative environment
  • A partnership model with membership rights

91
The Genesis Wellness Project
  • 6 week structured exercise program as part of a
    wellness program at Genesis Club, Worcester MA
  • Members (N17) had significant improvements in
    aerobic capacity (p0.0014) and perceived mental
    health (p0.046)
  • Positive trends in perceived improvements in
    physical and social functioning.
  • Qualitative data highlighted the value of group
    support and greater attention to nutrition as
    part of future programming.
  • Pelletier, Ngyuen, Bradley, Johnsen, McKay, 2005

92
Health Promotion in Clubhouse Programs Needs,
Barriers, and Current Planned Activities
  • A survey examining perceptions of the need for
    health promotion interventions, current and
    planned health promotion practices, and barriers
    to change and program development in ICCD
    clubhouses.
  • The mean number of health promotion activities
    ICCD clubhouses (N 219) report providing was
    5.24.
  • Despite barriers (e.g., cost), results indicate
    that every clubhouse responding to this survey
    offers at least one health promotion activity.
  • Clubhouse directors rated nutritional education
    and smoking cessation as items with the greatest
    need for health promotion interventions for
    clubhouse members.
  • McKay Pelletier, 2007
