The aim of this study was to explore the perceptions, experiences, and behaviors of health care providers (HCPs) after the implementation of a comprehensive smoke-free policy. This qualitative descriptive study, using semi-structured interviews, was conducted with 28 HCPs working in a Canadian hospital. Four overarching themes emerged from the analysis including (a) greater support for tobacco reduction, (b) enhanced patient care and interactions, (c) improved staff morale, and (d) some barriers still exist. The main findings suggest a comprehensive smoke-free hospital environment can strengthen the tobacco-free workplace culture within a hospital setting among HCPs where support for tobacco reduction is amplified, patient care and interactions regarding tobacco dependence are improved, and staff morale is enhanced. While there are still some challenging barriers as well as opportunities for improvements, the implementation of a comprehensive smoke-free policy heightened the call-to-action among HCPs to take a more active role in tobacco reduction.
本研究的目的是探讨实施全面无烟政策后医疗服务提供者（HCPs）的认知、经历和行为。这项定性描述性研究采用半结构化访谈，对在加拿大一家医院工作的28名HCPs进行了调查。分析得出了四个总体主题，包括（a）对减少烟草使用的更大支持，（b）加强患者护理和互动，（c）提高员工士气，以及（d）仍然存在一些障碍。主要研究结果表明，全面无烟的医院环境可以在医院环境中强化HCPs的无烟工作场所文化，其中对减少烟草使用的支持得到增强，对烟草依赖的患者护理和互动得到改善，员工士气得到提高。虽然仍然存在一些具有挑战性的障碍以及改进的机会，但全面无烟政策的实施增强了HCPs采取更积极行动减少烟草使用的行动呼吁。
