LSUHSC-S Goes Smoke Free
In order to promote our health and wellness goals, the buildings and grounds of LSUHSC-S, E.A. Conway Medical Center and Huey P. Long Medical Center became smoke free on July 1, 2010. Chancellor Robert A. Barish explained the new policy, saying “The risks associated with smoking have been established for years. With what we know about the effects of second-hand smoke, it’s time for this campus to follow the lead of peer institutions across the nation.” This policy will address faculty, staff, students, patients and visitors. Smoking cessation classes and other resources will be offered to help employees adapt to a smoke-free workplace. It is of interest that the School of Medicine in Shreveport instituted a smoke free policy more than twenty years ago on January 1, 1990. |
