Call off for the Provision of E-Cigarettes - Direct to Client Under North Northamptonshire Council - Framework for the Provision of Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT) Products and E Cigarettes

The North Northamptonshire Stop Smoking Service conducted a mini competition process for e cigarettes to form part of the treatment plan for service users as part of their 12-week treatment programme. These will only be given to clients that are engaged with the service for up to 12 weeks and receiving behavioural support from a Stop Smoking Advisor. E-cigarettes are provided as an adjunct to pharmacotherapy by the service and are restricted to service users over the age of 18, who have passed a required identification check. The e-cigarette starter kit must include, as a minimum, a ready to use e cigarette device, a lead to charge the device, and at least one replacement atomiser. The starter pack should also be shipped with e-liquid (Nicotine Salt Liquid) as per the clients' preference of flavour and strength. Replacement atomisers should be available to order from the supplier. The device must be reliable and easy to set-up and maintain. Clear instructions should be provided with the device itself, and the supplier should be willing to provide/create materials (leaflets, videos) that would further assist service users in using the device.
