Program Description

Smoking is an addictive, chronic disease. The costs to businesses are significant, from increased medical costs to loss in productivity due to smoking breaks and health issues. Quitting tobacco is difficult for everyone, but people who have a plan and get support are more likely to be successful. The Centers for Disease Control reports that more than 70 percent of current smokers say they want to quit. This is the ideal population for Leade Health's unique and award winning Tobacco Cessation program.

The Leade Health Tobacco Cessation program is a different approach to quitting tobacco. The program offers employees a personal Health Coach who supports them every step of the way in developing a personal plan for success. A plan that will give them the confidence to quit for good.
