Genesis Health System
Genesis makes the maximum use of your time during four one-hour sessions held over a four-week period. Individuals differ as to which part is most difficult for them, so the group and your facilitator will help you stop smoking as quickly as possible and you will learn techniques for ending your physical and psychological need to smoke. The Genesis Smoking Cessation Program is offered periodically throughout the year. For more information or to sign up for the next available class, please call Pulmonary Rehab at 563-421-6991.
