About the trial
What the trial wants to find out
This is a pilot trial to examine the feasibility and preliminary effect of a multilevel intervention 'Nudges to Quit' on smoking cessation in patients with serious mental illness who smoke in a community mental health center (CMHC). "Nudges to Quit" is a multilevel intervention to increase engagement of patient, case worker, and pharmacist with tobacco treatment. The pilot trial is to generate the needed evidence for designing a future large trial to evaluate the effect of 'Nudges to Quit' as a multilevel intervention to increase tobacco treatment and reduce tobacco use among patients with serious mental illness.
