An Introduction to Motivational Interviewing
Face to Face St George's Hospital London SW17 0QT
The success of physiotherapy is often influenced by the extent to which patients engage with it and adhere to the specific exercises and lifestyle changes that are recommended.
A key task for physiotherapists, therefore, is enhancing motivation for behaviour change.
This course is a one-day interactive workshop designed to introduce participants to the underlying styles and tasks involved in MI, explore the potential of MI within the contexts they work and ascertain interest in learning more.
The emphasis is trying out the skills within a safe and supportive learning environment.
There are plenty of opportunities to discuss how the approach may be used to address common clinical challenges.
