Abstract
A tobacco-free hospital environment sends an important signal to patients and visitors with regard to both safety and a healthy lifestyle. Today patients, staff and visitors increasingly expect an antismoking policy to be in place in hospitals and other venues where sick people are treated. Health care staff can play an important role in the implementation of an antismoking policy in their hospital.
