It’s Never Too Late to Stop Smoking.

Whole Health is going to be in the atrium lobby on November 16th to offer information on resources for Veterans wanting to stop smoking. In observation of the Great American Smokeout, VA reminds Veterans that “It’s Never Too Late” to stop smoking.

We offer a variety of support options — including prescription medications, hypnosis, nicotine replacement therapy and tobacco use counseling — to Veterans who want to stop smoking.
