93 Staff and visitors are not permitted to smoke in front of children. Homes may have a
designated area, where staff may smoke.
93 </p>
94 <p>
94 Staff should ensure that young people are educated about smoking. It is accepted that the more
that young people know, the more likely they are to make good decisions about how to deal with
smoking, drinking and the misuse of drugs / substances. Good communication ensures the right
messages and information are passed on.
94 </p>
95 <p>
95 Some children/young people may already smoke before they are placed in their home. You should
support and encourage such young people to reduce or stop smoking. Support is available
from the Looked After Children's Nurse or the young person's GP. This should be discussed with
the child/young person's social worker and addressed as part of the young person's Health
Plan.
95 </p>
96 <p>
96 Staff are not permitted to purchase or give cigarettes, tobacco, or the materials for making
or lighting cigarettes or tobacco to children.

101 It is an offence for shops to sell e-cigarettes to under 18s or for an adult to buy
e-cigarettes for them.
101 </p>
102 <p>
102 The long term effects of vaping / E-cigarettes on health are unknown, but current research
indicates that their use is significantly less harmful than conventional smoking, and that the
use of e-cigarettes is currently the most popular tool used by smokers who want to quit.
102 </p>
103 <p>
103 However, if a young person indicates that they would like to try e-cigarettes as a way of
giving up smoking, they should be encouraged to contact the LAC Nurse, their GP or local stop
smoking services which are recommended by Public Health England as the most effective way to
stop smoking.

107 <p>
107 All homes should be alcohol free zones; alcohol should not be brought or kept on the premises
and children should not normally be taken into licensed premises, unless it is part of a clear
plan leading toward independence or on a special occasion; e.g. Christmas. In any case,
children will not be allowed to purchase or consume alcohol.
107 </p>
108 <p>
108 Staff are not permitted to consume alcohol whilst on duty and should not arrive at work under
the influence of alcohol.
108 </p>
109 <p>
109 Staff should ensure that children/young people are educated about alcohol and its effects.
109 </p>
110 <p>
110 If staff are concerned that a child/young person has been drinking alcohol, this should be
raised with the home's manager and the child's social worker as required.
110 </p>
111 <p>
111 Where it becomes evident, or it is suspected, that a child or young person has been drinking
alcohol, the most appropriate response will vary dependent on how much the young person has
had to drink or how it has effected them. These options are outlined below:
111 </p>
112 <ul>
113 <li>
113 Offering fluids - water, squash;
113 </li>
114 <li>
114 Periodic monitoring and checks by staff - 10 minutes, 30 minutes, hourly, etc.
114 </li>
115 <li>
115 Contacting health professionals for advice e.g. G.P.;
115 </li>
116 <li>
116 Hospitalisation for day patient or overnight stay if appropriate, etc.
