Hello, jbjon44-ga!
I was able to find two, hospital-based, inpatient stop-smoking
programs. One is in the midwest at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester,
Minnesota. Alternatively, there is an inpatient program at St. Helena
Hospital in Helena, California.
One other option is a program offered by the Hazelden Foundation. It
is a seven-day residential program at the Dan Anderson Renewal Center
in Center City, MN.
MAYO CLINIC 8-day Residential Program - Rochester, MN
*******************************************************
"The eight-day residential treatment program at the Mayo Nicotine
Dependence Center provides the most intensive treatment we have to
offer. The residential program offers:
Protected, tobacco-free setting
Individual and group counseling
Medications to relieve withdrawal
Physician supervision
Long-term follow-up to prevent relapse
The program lasts eight days, from Friday to Friday. Sessions are kept
small, with a maximum of 10 patients, to ensure that each individual's
needs are met.
Patients have daily group therapy and individual therapy at least four
times during the week, more often if needed. Each patient is assigned
a primary counselor who provides therapy and follow-up care.
Daily educational sessions cover information on stress management,
family dynamics in recovery, relapse prevention, medical effects of
smoking, grief and loss, respiratory therapy and diet and exercise.
The program is based on principles of addiction therapy and cognitive
behavioral change.
There are daily exercise sessions, and supervised "off-unit"
activities. The program is staffed 24 hrs a day, and patients describe
feeling safe, with on-going supervision keeping them from having that
"one cigarette". Patients are asked to monitor the improvement in
their lung health daily with carbon monoxide testing.
For more information or to register, call (800) 344-5984.

"The truth is, tobacco dependency is extremely complex and involves
all aspects of a person?s being. That?s why this program treats the
whole person: medically, physiologically, psychologically and
spiritually. To be successful, you must participate in all aspects of
the program, and be willing to replace old behaviors with new ones."
"Physicians and a nurse practitioner will help with the medical
management of your withdrawal, which may include medicine. If medicine
is prescribed, it will be based on your individual history, physiology
and addictive profile. Every person in this program is here to empower
you so you can face your addiction head-on and come out on top."
"An initial assessment, which includes a lung function test, will help
identify any physical challenges you may face. Once these have been
identified, a team of specialists help you put together the tools and
strategies best suited to your individual needs."
