In brief: Hospital campus to be smoke free

SPOKANE VALLEY – Beginning July 1, all Valley Hospital and Medical Center properties will be entirely tobacco and smoke free, inside and outside. The use of any form of tobacco anywhere on the property, including grounds, parking lots and vehicles, will be prohibited.

Valley Hospital patients who are tobacco users will have the option to receive nicotine replacement therapy such as patches, during hospital stays. Hospital visitors who use tobacco will be offered complimentary “Kraving Kits” that contain non-nicotine items to assist with withdrawal, as well as information about cessation resources.
