Posted By Nick House Hi Zoe Although I have not come across this in a professional capacity, I do have related experience, as I foster children with difficulties, and can appreciate where you are coming from. Some of the things that have been used with children that I have fostered in the past whilst in this kind of environment have been designated rooms that have extraction units in (similar to smoking rooms in the workplace), but these have been decorated so that the overall atmosphere is as relaxing for the person as possible, ensuring that they do not feel discriminated against just because they smoke. Fire retardant furniture would be a necessity, of course, but the room(s) should also be made as comfortable as possible. Younger people, or people with a history of pyromania should not be left unsupervised (so a large window linking to another internal area within the building would be necessary. It might also be a good idea to keep all cigarettes, lighters, matches, etc., in a safe place, with each person having to ask for a cigarette whenever they need one. For advice on giving up smoking, try the NHS website, http://www.givingupsmoking.co.uk/ This has plenty of information that could prove useful, but it should be stressed that each person should be encouraged, but not pushed into giving up smoking. Also, if they attempt to give up, but fall back into the habit, as they may well have other emotional pronblems, care should be taken to ensure that this does not cause them to become depressed, or affect their (possibly already low) self-esteem. Sorry to prattle on, but I hope this has been of use. Regards, and best of luck, Nick.
