Summary
A Change in the Air presents the findings of a study of smokefree policy and practice in mental health trusts in England.
The findings are principally drawn from a survey of mental health trusts conducted in the summer of 2018.
The aim of this study is to describe the progress made by mental health trusts in England in implementing NICE guidance PH48 by examining the content of smokefree policies, current practice (especially within acute services) and perceived outcomes of smokefree policies.
