POW'R To Be Tobacco Free Cessation Center (also known as POW'R Cessation Center) is one of 19 Cessation Centers in New York State which is funded through a grant by the New York State Department of Health Tobacco Control Program (NYS TCP). POW'R Cessation Centers main goal is to provide training and technical support to health care institutions and providers such as, clinics, home healthcare agencies, private practices, chemical dependency treatment centers, mental health agencies and dental offices in the design and implementation of systems to screen, identify and provide interventions and treatment for their tobacco-using patients based on the Public Health Service Clinical Practice Guidelines - "Treating Tobacco Use and Dependence" - 2008. POW'R Cessation Centers catchment area consists of Putnam, Orange, Westchester and Rockland Counties. We also assist hospitals and other healthcare facilities in all phases of becoming tobacco-free (including their entire campus). To further assist their patients and community to quit smoking, POW'R Cessation Center will train your staff to become smoking cessation facilitators.
