COLUMBIA, Tenn. (WTVF) — Maury County Regional Health is offering a free, four-part nicotine cessation program in Jan. 2024 for anyone looking for ways to stop the habit of smoking or nicotine use.
The program will meet at 6 p.m. on Tuesdays, Jan. 2 to Jan. 23, at Maury Regional Medical Center, 1224 Trotwood Avenue in Columbia.
“Quitting cigarettes, vaping products and smokeless tobacco may be the single most important thing a person can do to improve their health,” said Sharon Dobbins, a respiratory therapist who will lead the sessions. “As a former smoker, I can personally relate to the challenges that come with trying to stop using tobacco products and encourage those who are trying to quit to join this supportive group session.”
Advanced registration is required for the course in order to provide all the necessary materials. You can register for the course online.
This is a beautiful story of chosen family, proving a father figure doesn't have to have biology in common to make a difference in a child's life. The story of De'Andre and Alex will remind you that our relationships help determine the course of our lives. And that being supportive of someone - through a meal, a shared experience or even swim lessons can make all the difference.
