Stop smoking with help from Adventist La Grange Memorial Hospital
La Grange – Starting Jan. 14, Adventist La Grange Memorial Hospital will begin a new round of smoking cessation classes, designed to help anyone trying to kick the habit.
The classes, which cost $99, were developed by the American Lung Association. Each session is run as a group meeting, with participants talking about why they wish to quit. Nicotine withdrawal, available medications, stress relief and diet are also addressed through the program.
The first seven-week series of eight classes begins at 6:30 p.m. Jan. 14 at Adventist La Grange Memorial Hospital, 5101 S. Willow Springs Road in La Grange.
