1 Introduction
All Providers are expected to provide Essential and those Additional services that they are contracted to provide to all their patients. This Community Pharmacy Local Enhanced Service (CPLES) Agreement outlines the more specialised services to be provided. The specification of this service is designed to cover the enhanced aspects of clinical care of the patient, all of which are beyond the scope of Essential Services. No part of the specification by commission, omission or implication defines or redefines Essential or Additional Services.
2 Background
The prevalence of smoking in the adult population of Wakefield is estimated at 25.6%, which is about 5% higher than the national average (2010/11 IHS data).
Smoking is the single greatest cause of preventable illness and premature death in the UK. It causes more than 120,000 deaths each year. One in two smokers will die from a smoking related disease and 70% of smokers say they would like to stop. Wakefield consistently shows a higher rate of smoking related illness than the national average.
3 Service Aims
The purpose of this CPLES is:
a) To increase the number of smokers who successfully quit at the 4
week assessment stage. b) To provide a fully completed Minimum Data Set (MDS) for every
smoker who has a supported quit attempt. c) For practice staff to be competent in delivering the service to a high
standard. d) For accurate information on outcomes to be remitted to Wakefield
District PCT (hereafter referred to as ‘the PCT’). e) Help identify patients at risk of COPD and refer appropriately
4 Service Outline
The service provided by Providers under this CPLES should complement the service provided by the Wakefield Stop Smoking Service. Providers undertaking this CPLES should be willing and motivated to fully participate in the service provision and work together with the local specialist Stop Smoking team.

In the delivery of this CPLES it is expected that providers will:
a) Deliver the service in accordance with the standards and training provided by the Wakefield Stop Smoking Service.
b) Only those Staff who are trained to level 2 can provide smoking
cessation service to clients. In the event that staff are on annual leave/absent or unable to provide support the client will be referred to the Wakefield Stop smoking service.

minutes in duration. d) Perform a screening spirometry on all patients during their
first/initial consultation and record the result. e) Inform patients of any need to seek further advice from their GP
regarding screening spirometry results. f) Practice to be informed of abnormal spirometry using template
attached in Appendix 6 g) All patients will be given their lung age as part of screening
spirometry. h) Proactively make contact with the smoker ideally on a weekly basis
but at least fortnightly if the patient has difficulty attending more frequently.
i) Make themselves available to the patients on a weekly basis either
at a face-to-face consultation or by telephone. If a face-to-face consultation is carried out, Carbon Monoxide monitoring should be undertaken. A minimum of 85% should be Carbon Monoxide validated.
j) Ensure a timely pathway is in place for patients to obtain their
prescription (Champix, Buporpion or NRT) to coincide with a set quit date.
k) Complete an assessment 4 weeks after the agreed quit date. The
smoking status of the patient will be assessed and recorded at this point.
l) Validate the 4-week smoking status by the use of a Carbon
Monoxide monitor. m) If the situation arises where a waiting time of more than 4 weeks is
created, the Provider will make a referral to the Wakefield Stop Smoking Service.

n) Offer the patient a choice of receiving smoking cessation advice within group setting or a one to one intervention.
o) If patients prefer to receive advice within a group setting, the
Provider will make a referral to the Wakefield Stop Smoking Service.
p) If patients are still requiring support after 12 weeks, the Provider will
make a referral to the Wakefield Stop Smoking Service. q) The consultation should take place in an appropriate room to
maintain patient confidentiality. r) All pregnant women must be invited for 2 x 20 minute pure smoking
cessation advice appointments in the 1st trimester of their pregnancy run by a specialist advisor.
s) Patients identified as being at risk of lung disease will be asked to
see their GP for a full lung function test. t) Provide a minimum of 24 MDS forms per year There may be an opportunity for an annual Smoking Cessation in Pharmacy (SCIP) visit from a member of the Wakefield Stop Smoking Service to ensure maintenance of standards and discussion of any problems.
The Wakefield Stop Smoking Service will always be available for support and advice throughout the provision of this agreement.
A screening spirometer meeting national standards will be issued / provided by the PCT, via the Primary Care/Public Health team, free of charge, enabling pharmacist to perform the required spirometry screening during the consultation. The screening spirometer will be an asset for each individual pharmacy. NRT
For access to Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT) the advisor will redirect the patient to their GP by completing the standard GP prescription request letter.
NRT should be issued following the agreement to set a quit date.
For patients who prefer not to use NRT products and request other pharmaceutical products (e.g. Zyban, Champix) the advisor will redirect the patient to their GP. The GP will assess the patient and prescribe if appropriate

Appendix 2 Why did I have this breathing test?
This simple test can help with the early detection of COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease). COPD is an umbrella term for a number of lung conditions such as chronic bronchitis and emphysema. 1 in 5 smokers or ex smokers will develop COPD. Many do not know they are at risk as the condition can be undetected for many years as symptoms develop slowly. As a smoker or ex-smoker it is important you have this test if you are having some of the following symptoms:
Breathlessness
Coughing several times most days
Coughing up lots of phlegm
Getting out of breath more easily than others your age
If COPD is found early, steps can be taken to prevent further problems to your lungs and to help you feel better.
What do the results mean?
It is important to remember that this test is a screening test and cannot diagnose any lung conditions. The health professional doing the test will talk to you and give you advice about your test results. If your test results suggest that there may be some problems with your lungs, you will be asked to see your GP for a further breathing test. This test can give more information about your lung health. If you are still smoking you need to think about stopping smoking as it is starting to affect your lung health. If you do have any problems with your breathing or you have symptoms such as breathlessness, coughing or bringing up phlegm which you are worried about you need to see your GP to discuss them.

Appendix 5 Testing procedure The testing area should be a private space. There must be a chair and a height chart for accurately measuring height prior to testing. The procedure for testing should be as follows:
1. Use the Spirometry Checklist to ensure that the patient does not have any reason why they should not have the test. Only proceed if there are no contraindications present. In patients where contra-indications exist please explain to the patient, provide a copy of the leaflet ‘Coughing Again’ and ask them to seek advice from their GP if they have any respiratory symptoms.
2. Measure the height of the patient in centimetres. 3. Demonstrate how to blow into the Screening spirometer using a
mouthpiece. 4. Ask the patient if they have any questions or concerns. 5. Enter patient details into the screening spirometer, place a new one
way flow mouthpiece into machine and ask the patient to blow as per user instruction manual. This process will be repeated 3 times leaving a short gap between blows.
6. If the ratio of FEV1 /FEV6 is less than 70% then the participant should be asked to see their GP.
Suggested Responses for those screened
(Green Sector Results) If FEV1 /FEV6 is less than 70%: “While it is important to remember that this is just a screening test, your results suggest that there may be some damage to your lungs that has probably been caused by your smoking. We would advise that you stop smoking and make an appointment with your GP in the next week or so to discuss the results. You may want to arrange a more accurate breathing test at the Practice.’’ If requested the following will give more information for the patient (Orange sector results) FEV1 > 50%
Smokers: The result is a little a bit lower than we would expect it to be for someone of your age and so we would recommend that you need to stop smoking. You should see your doctor for a full breathing test; they can also check whether some treatment like an inhaler might help you if you have any symptoms.
Page 20 of 28 20
(Red Sector Results) FEV1 < 50%
Smokers: The result is quite a bit lower than we would expect it to be for someone of your age and so we would recommend that you need to stop smoking. You should see your doctor for a full breathing test; they can also check whether some treatment like an inhaler might help you if you have any symptoms.
Lung Age Lung age is used to support a quit attempt in smokers. Lung Age ≤ actual age The test is showing that smoking has not yet had a big affect on your lung age and your lung age is equal to/less than your actual age. Now would be a very good time to stop smoking to protect your lungs from premature ageing. Lung Age > actual age The test is showing that smoking has had an affect on your lungs and your lung age is a little/much higher than your actual age. Now would be a very good time to stop smoking to slow down premature ageing of your lungs.
Provide the patient with written information re their test result including written information on any action required on their part. At the end of the test dispose of mouthpiece and clean between patients as per manufacturer’s instructions
