Course Description:
Improving and creating a connection and relationship between provider and patient can lead to
honest and open dialogue between provider and patient, driving better patient adherence and
buy-in and ultimately leading to better patient outcomes. It is particularly important to for
providers and patients to stay connected in the virtual world.
However, providers are not typically trained in the strategies and skills to effectively activate
patients. Their training is focused on a less-collaborative, hierarchical communication style.
This course (and the Patient Activation series) will challenge the traditional top-down approach
to communication that permeates the current state of healthcare. The course will succinctly and
powerfully give providers strategies and skills to truly connect with patients and activate them in
their own health and wellness goals. This course focuses on applying a Motivational
Interviewing (MI) approach when collaborating with patients in a virtual setting.
