Our Care Conversation series is for patients and caregivers to support, encourage and educate. The format is a 45-minutes presentation followed by 15-minutes for Q&A.

Despite the negative effects of tobacco use, and individuals’ best intentions, many people have a difficult time quitting on their own. That’s where Roswell Park’s Tobacco Treatment Services can help. At this Care Conversations session, Emily Bargamin, MS, LMSW, Tobacco Treatment Specialist, will share more about:

  • Why tobacco treatment services are an essential part of your cancer care
  • What is included in a personalized tobacco treatment plan
  • Is it important to quit tobacco and vaping?
  • Risks associated with continuing to smoke or vape
  • Immediate and long-term benefits of quitting
