What to Expect When You Quit With The Helpline
Getting help to quit tobacco does take courage. The Oklahoma Tobacco Helpline takes the pressure off with non-judgmental quit support. There are two ways to quit with the Helpline. Register online, or call 1-800-QUIT NOW to get started.
While that first phone call and the first Quit Coach chat might sound intimidating — it’s really not! Let’s take a look at what to expect.
What Happens When You Call 1-800-QUIT NOW
What happens when you call the Helpline? First, you’ll speak with a registration specialist who will ask some basic questions and take your info — including where to send your free nicotine replacement therapy.
Once your info is entered, you’ll be transferred to a Helpline Quit Coach. Then, you and your Quit Coach will work together to build a quit plan that fits your needs. If you don’t have time to speak with a Quit Coach right away, no worries! You can request a call at a later time.
Not feeling chatty? That’s okay! Skip the registration call and sign up online.
Quit Coaches
Available with the free All Access plan, Quit Coaches are experts dedicated to helping people quit tobacco. They get 270 hours of training in areas like behavioral therapy and motivational interviewing. They are also specially trained to work with teens, diverse populations and people with mental health issues.
What exactly does a Quit Coach do? They answer all your questions about quitting tobacco. Need advice on how your body will feel after a few days of quitting? Just ask your Quit Coach! Want tips to beat nicotine cravings? Your Quit Coach will know!
Quit Coaches use battle-tested methods to help you put tobacco in the rearview mirror. You can count on your Quit Coach to stay calm, cool and collected — even if you’re feeling a little frantic. Simply put, Quit Coaches care — and they give you every tool and strategy you need to quit tobacco.
One more awesome thing about Quit Coaches? Their judgment-free support is available 24/7.
Three FREE Plans. One Goal.
Everyone who registers with the Oklahoma Tobacco Helpline can choose from three free plans. Each one comes with at least a two-week supply of patches, gum or lozenges for FREE.
The most successful plan? All Access. This plan gives you Quit Coaching phone calls, which are perfect for navigating your way to freedom. Plus, you’ll get web coaching, supportive text messages, helpful emails and a Quit Guide.
The two other free plans available are Web Coaching and Individual Services. Web Coaching gives you the benefits of All Access, minus the Quit Coaching calls.
What about Individual Services? It’s the simplest plan of all. Simply pick which services you want, including FREE patches, gum or lozenges, text messages, helpful emails or the Quit Guide. Choose the right mix for you, and you’ll be on your way.
