Abstract
Our findings highlight a large degree of unmet need in Hong Kong's hospital-based nurses and social workers who work with the elderly regarding smoking cessation service provision and training. Future research should focus on developing and evaluating programs that encourage nurses and social workers to provide cessation interventions to exert a much greater collective impact than doctors can alone.
