This is an in-person educational activity. This continuing education activity is designed to equip physicians and advance practitioners with the communication skills and strategies – specifically, motivational interviewing and shared decision-making skills – that are important in working with patients when the objective is to try to catalyze some health-related behavior change in those patients. A salient example (and one that will be a focus of this activity) is vaccine hesitancy or reluctance on the part of adults as well as the parents of minors. Given the growth of the phenomenon of vaccine hesitancy within our own patient populations, learners should attend this session to optimize their efficacy in aligning patient behaviors with their own best interests, as well as the interests of public health.
Target Audience
This activity is designed for physicians, nurses, and pharmacists in outpatient/community practice, including pediatrics. Other learner groups such as any other learner that utilizes motivational interviewing during their clinical practice would also benefit from this education.
Learning Objectives
At the completion of this course, the participant should be able to:
- Identify specific motivational interviewing and shared decision-making skills and techniques useful in communicating with patients about health-related behavior change
- Effectively utilize specific motivational interviewing and shared decision-making skills in simulated encounters with standardized patients
Course Cancellation Policy
In the unusual circumstance that this course is cancelled, you will be called and/or emailed, and any tuition fees received would be refunded in full. Geisinger is not responsible for any airfare, hotel or other costs incurred.
Attendance
Attendance will be recorded within three to four days of the conclusion of the activity. Credit will display on your continuing education transcript once the activity evaluation is completed.
