I worked with a women who was also a chainsmoker. Noone ever thought she would quit, she looooved her cigarettes,( by her own admission). She has now quit, and she can't believe how much better she can smell odors and how much better her food tastes. She now knows how offensive cigarette smoke/smell is. She honestly didn't realize how bad it was, but she says she can now smell cigarettes a mile away, and can't believe she used to smell like that. I still work with individuals that smoke however. One individual is a smoker, but never at work. Her philosophy is that it's not fair to our NICU patients. I think her attitiude is great. I think it is a free country to a certain extent, but not when patient health is at risk.
