Brief Summary

Children who are hospitalized are especially vulnerable to the effects of tobacco use and dependence among their caregivers, and they are more likely to be exposed than children who are not hospitalized. Hospitalization is an important teachable moment for health care providers to intervene with tobacco dependent parents, and help them reduce their child's exposure, potentially improving outcomes after hospitalization, and their future health. Understanding the best way to approach and intervene with these families will provide the investigator with the necessary information to create a sustainable intervention that can be disseminated to hospitals across the country that provide pediatric care, and to ultimately make a significant improvement in the health of children.

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Increased parent report of having smoke free homes and cars

    12 months after patient hospitalization

  • Increased parent quit rates

    12 months after patient hospitalization

  • Child exposure prevalence

    12 months after patient hospitalization

  • Child sick visits

Study Arms (2)

Control Group: Quitline

OTHER

Quitline referral. If the family is randomized to the control group, the research team will give the parent a brochure for the QuitLine

Other: Control Group: Quitline

Intervention Group

EXPERIMENTAL

Smoking Cessation Intervention Bundle. The Investigator has developed an intervention that bundles the best evidence for tobacco dependence treatment, including the USPHS guidelines, and evidence from parent-specific interventions, to create a sustainable, transferrable intervention specific to using the inpatient stay to help parents quit smoking and reduce their children's exposure. The intervention bundle includes screening for exposure, assessing readiness to quit, providing at least one brief motivational interviewing session in the hospital, dispensing nicotine replacement therapy if appropriate, providing a smoking cessation/reduction starter kit and arranging for follow up after the child is discharged.

Behavioral: Smoking Cessation Intervention Bundle

Interventions

Receipt of the smoke cessation/reduction intervention bundle followed by referral to the Quitline.

Intervention Group

Referral to the Quitline

Control Group: Quitline
