Motivational Interviewing in Healthcare Introduction

This one-day training is for healthcare practitioners who want to improve patient outcomes, as well as increase job satisfaction and reduce stress. Motivational Interviewing is a healthcare best-practice focusing on communication as a fundamental intervention leading to sustained behavior change. The emphasis is on efficient and effective collaboration that maximizes impact within the realities of time constraints in healthcare today. The training tailors MI to the ‘Assessment-then-Intervention’ medical model with specific healthcare scenarios. This training is an excellent introduction to MI in healthcare, provides updates and a refresher for those who have attended previous MI trainings, and is the foundation to pursuing ‘competency’ or ‘proficiency’ standards in MI per fidelity to the best-practice model.
