What is Choices
& Changes?
Individual behaviors is well
documented to have a substantial impact on the prevention, treatment, and
course of a wide variety of illnesses and conditions. Clinicians Frequently
express frustration about their capacity to influence patient behavior,
especially when they see the negative impact of that behavior on their
patients' health outcomes.
Clinicians are well-versed in how
specific behavioral changes can improve patients' health, but are typically
ill-equipped to help patients make changes.
Choices and Changes:
Motivating Healthy Behaviors
provides clinicians with efficient and effective tools to help them motivate
patients' health behavior changes to care plans.
