Belfast Trust has been Smoke Free across all sites since 9 March 2016. Being ‘Smoke Free’ means that smoking or using e-cigarettes is not acceptable anywhere on Belfast Trust sites, including buildings, entrances, exits, grounds, car parks and all vehicles. There are no longer any smoking shelters and smoking is not permitted in cars parked on Trust grounds. This applies to everyone using Belfast Trust facilities and services.
The purpose of the Smoke Free Policy is to protect and improve the health and wellbeing of patients, staff and visitors by:
- Assisting patients and staff who wish to stop smoking
- Setting an example of best practice
- Providing a healthy environment.
