Tobacco Cessation for People with HIV
At Henry Ford Hospital Infectious Disease Clinic we have trained staff in the clinic to help you when you are ready or thinking about quitting. We offer many options including classes, one on one counseling and telephone help. Helping you to quit using tobacco is one of our highest priorities. People with HIV who use tobacco have poorer health outcomes and are less likely to stay on HIV treatment than non-tobacco users with HIV. Don’t wait until your next visit to get help quitting; call us today at (313) 916-2556 and ask to speak to one of our staff about quitting.
