About half were receiving treatment for psychotic illness, and there were high rates of other psychiatric disorders, physical illness and substance use disorder. Carbon monoxide (CO) readings were significantly higher for those smoking discarded cigarette butts. Among the subset of clients who attended the clinic more than once ( n=56), only four quit for more than a month and one for a year. However, the reported number of cigarettes smoked per day was significantly lower ( p=0.001), with a significant reduction in CO ( p<0.008).<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n This study confirms the difficulty that homeless men experience in quitting smoking, but demonstrates the potential to reduce the physical and financial harm of smoking through cessation support interventions in this setting.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/1039856215593396","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,7,3]],"date-time":"2015-07-03T10:55:30Z","timestamp":1435920930000},"page":"528-530","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":15,"title":["An audit of assessment and outcome of intervention at a quit smoking clinic in a homeless hostel"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"23","author":[{"given":"Joseph","family":"Power","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Sydney Medical School, University of Sydney, Sydney, NSW, Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Claire","family":"Mallat","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Matthew Talbot Hostel Clinic, Woolloomooloo, NSW, Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Billie","family":"Bonevski","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Associate Professor and NHMRC Fellow, University of Newcastle, Newcastle, NSW, Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Olav","family":"Nielssen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Medicine and Public Health, Faculty of Health and Medicine, University of Newcastle, Callaghan, NSW, Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2015,7,2]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-1039856215593396","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/jama.2013.284692"},{"key":"bibr2-1039856215593396","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/0004867412449876"},{"key":"bibr3-1039856215593396","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.amepre.2010.03.024"},{"key":"bibr4-1039856215593396","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/oxfordjournals.epirev.a036185"},{"key":"bibr5-1039856215593396","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/dar.12103"},{"key":"bibr6-1039856215593396","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1360-0443.2010.03174.x"},{"key":"bibr7-1039856215593396","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/1740774511423947"},{"key":"bibr8-1039856215593396","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1360-0443.1989.tb03059.x"},{"key":"bibr9-1039856215593396","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/archgenpsychiatry.2009.41"},{"key":"bibr10-1039856215593396","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/1471-2458-11-256"},{"key":"bibr11-1039856215593396","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4088\/JCP.11r07222"},{"key":"bibr12-1039856215593396","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1465-3362.2012.00461.x"}],"container-title":["Australasian Psychiatry"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/1039856215593396","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/full-xml\/10.1177\/1039856215593396","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/1039856215593396","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,28]],"date-time":"2026-04-28T11:47:38Z","timestamp":1777376858000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/10.1177\/1039856215593396"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2015,7,2]]},"references-count":12,"journal-issue":{"issue":"5","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2015,10]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1177\/1039856215593396"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/1039856215593396","relation":{},"ISSN":["1039-8562","1440-1665"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1039-8562","type":"print"},{"value":"1440-1665","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2015,7,2]]}}}
