Tobacco Policy

All North Mississippi Health Services' locations, whether the facility and grounds are owned, leased or rented, are tobacco free. The policy, which went into effect July 8, 2008, applies to everyone on those premises. Employees, medical staff, volunteers, vendors, visitors and patients are not permitted to use tobacco products in any facility or on any grounds of North Mississippi Health Services.

This change reflects NMHS' dedication to the promotion of health and wellness. NMHS is pleased to join the ranks of other hospitals and health systems throughout Mississippi that have already adopted similar policies.

Smoking Cessation Classes

Individuals who want to quit using tobacco products are invited to find out how with a free program presented by the ACT (A Comprehensive Tobacco) Center and taught by North Mississippi Medical Center.

The seven-week program and nicotine patches are free for registered participants. For more information on class dates and times, call (662) 377-5787 or 1-800-THE DESK (1-800-843-3375).
