HealthSciences Health Coaching Webinar Series


HealthSciences is now accepting registrations for the Spring MI Health Coaching Webinar Series. 

Following a sold-out Fall session, on Thursday May 2nd, HealthSciences Institute kicks off the Spring MI Health Coaching Webinar Series with Miller and Rollnick's 2012 Health Coaching Framework from Helping People Change (3rd Ed.). The new model offers a step-by-step process for engaging patients and facilitating health-related behavior change. In addition to reviewing this new model and its application to real world health care settings, the series includes individual and team practice activities and case studies for building concrete, practical health coaching skills.

Twice National Institutes of Health-funded authority on MI in health care, Associate Professor of Medicine at Oregon Health & Science University's School of Medicine, MINT member, and HealthSciences Institute's MI lead contributor, Dr. Susan Butterworth, facilitates.

Who Should Attend? 
Any health care practitioner, new to MI or experienced in MI, who has not completed training in this new model. The series is designed for practitioners who serve patients at risk of, or affected by, chronic conditions in telephonic or face-to-face wellness, disease management or case management, or, direct care settings including medical homes and accountable care organizations. Clinicians and non clinicians are welcome to attend including nurses, advanced practice nurses, pharmacists, physicians, dietitians, rehabilitation therapists and behavioral health care professionals. Chronic Care Professional (CCP) health coach certification is a recommended, but not required, pre-requisite.
