Current strategies to reduce staff exposure to SHS during home visits were often reported as inadequate with SHS not a hazard considered by managers beyond protecting pregnant staff or those with pre-existing respiratory conditions such as asthma. Simple respiratory protective equipment (as used during the COVID-19 pandemic) was rightly identified as being ineffective. Methods such as nicotine replacement therapy and e-cigarettes were identified as potential ways to help people who smoke achieve temporary asbstinence prior to a home visit.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Implementing appropriate and proportionate measures to protect home-care workers from the harms posed by SHS should be a priority to help protect the health of this often overlooked occupational group.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1093\/annweh\/wxae069","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,8,19]],"date-time":"2024-08-19T10:34:48Z","timestamp":1724063688000},"page":"999-1003","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["\u201cWhy should care workers be any different from prison workers?\u201d A qualitative study of second-hand smoke exposure during home-care visits and potential measures to eliminate exposure"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"68","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2713-1847","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Rachel","family":"O\u2019Donnell","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute for Social Marketing and Health, Faculty of Health Sciences and Sport, University of Stirling , Stirling, FK9 4LA ,","place":["United Kingdom"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ruaraidh","family":"Dobson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute for Social Marketing and Health, Faculty of Health Sciences and Sport, University of Stirling , Stirling, FK9 4LA ,","place":["United Kingdom"]},{"name":"Trilateral Research Ltd, One Knightsbridge Green , London SW1X 7QA ,","place":["United Kingdom"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0462-7295","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sean","family":"Semple","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute for Social Marketing and Health, Faculty of Health Sciences and Sport, University of Stirling , Stirling, FK9 4LA ,","place":["United Kingdom"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,8,19]]},"reference":[{"issue":"12","key":"2024112505505149800_CIT0001","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1673","DOI":"10.1093\/ntr\/nty226","article-title":"Home health and community care workers\u2019 occupational exposure to secondhand smoke: a rapid literature review","volume":"21","author":"Angus","year":"2019","journal-title":"Nicotine Tob Res"},{"issue":"9","key":"2024112505505149800_CIT0002","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1133","DOI":"10.1093\/annweh\/wxab019","article-title":"Occupational exposure to second-hand tobacco smoke: development of a job exposure matrix","volume":"65","author":"Dobson","year":"2021","journal-title":"Ann Work Expo Health"},{"issue":"2","key":"2024112505505149800_CIT0003","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"208","DOI":"10.1093\/annweh\/wxac066","article-title":"Second-hand Smoke exposure among Home Care Workers (HCWs) in Scotland","volume":"67","author":"Dobson","year":"2023","journal-title":"Ann.
