        Abstract

        The routes to quit (RTQ) model was designed to offer smokers a more flexible approach to quitting. While the current model of care (abrupt quit) delivered through local stop smoking services is still the most effective quit method, the percentage of smokers who use these services indicates that other ways of stopping, which could appeal to a wider audience, should be considered.  The aim of the RTQ model was therefore to encourage a greater number of smokers to access evidence-based support by offering a broader range of support options known as tailored quit plans (TQP).

        In 2010 the NCSCT was commissioned by the Department of Health in England to test the RtQ model. This presentation will provide an overview of the RtQ pilots including the key pilot findings and lessons learnt. Future points for national and local consideration will also be discussed.
