Treating Common Cold: An Expert Panel Consensus Recommendation for Primary Care Clinicians
Brief Interventions Using Motivational Interviewing in the Primary Care Setting
May 21, 2010 • 6.5 contact hours • Seattle, WAChanging problematic behaviors involves much more than simply giving patients information. It is a process of exploring conflicting interests and needs. Motivational Interviewing techniques help primary care providers to work with their patients by resolving this ambivalence around problematic behaviors — such as medication adherence, physical activity, diet/nutrition issues, smoking, lifestyle changes, and drug/alcohol use.
An internationally recognized trainer, Christopher Dunn, PhD, will teach you practical, brief, and easy-to-use tools to enhance your treatment of patients. This training focuses on teaching you skills to help improve your patient interactions, with multiple opportunities to practice.
