The purpose of this community-based antismoking and anti-betel nut program was to practice the principles of a health promoting hospital and to help to build a non-smoking hospital and community for the local people. According to the WHO Ottawa Charter for Health Promotion, there are five key areas for health promotion; these are building healthy public policy, creating supportive environments, strengthening community action, developing personal skills and reorientation of the health services. The aim of this program was to carry out these policies. The overall aim was to develop a health promotion model for anti-smoking that could then be expanded to other hospitals. Based on the results of this program, it is suggested that such steps be taken at once so that by investing in health promotion, community health is improved.
