Tobacco & E-Smoking Device Control and Prevention Program

DID YOU KNOW

  • Smoking kills more people than alcohol, AIDS, car crashes, illegal drugs, murders and suicides combined – and thousands more die from other tobacco-related causes – such as fires caused by smoking
  • About 25% of Hawai’i high school students use e-smoking devices. Tobacco and e-smoking device use is started and established primarily during adolescence
  • Nearly nine out of 10 cigarette smokers first tried smoking by age 18

 

The goal of Hāmākua-Kohala Health is to serve the total healthcare needs of each patient. In addition to your physical health, we recognize that your mental and emotional state can also enhance or hinder your treatment and recovery.

Hamakua-Kohala Health providers collaborate to provide whole-person oriented healthcare services and education and offer integrated treatment for tobacco and e-smoking device control and prevention, behavioral health and substance abuse concerns:
