Applying Motivational Interviewing to End-of-Life Care Challenges Webinar
April 8, 2025 3:00 PM - 4:30 PM
(EDT)
Description
Who develops end-of-life care plans – patients or staff?
Could patient compliance be an issue simply because ”their” plan is unrecognizable? How do you figure it out? Motivational interviewing could be the tool you need. This webinar will delve into interviewing skills, provide specific techniques, and explain how they apply to difficult end-of-life situations. Register now for this program that will benefit the entire interdisciplinary team and provide a wealth of take-away tools that can be used immediately!
AFTER THIS WEBINAR YOU’LL BE ABLE TO:
Examine the theory and science behind motivational interviewing (MI)
Review five specific tools and techniques to determine motivation levels
Explore the links between motivation, goals, and achievable plans
Highlight the use of “decisional balance” in fine-tuning plans
Discuss “troubleshooting” as a method to ensure success
Apply knowledge, skills, and interventions to common challenging situations
WEBINAR DETAILS
If patients and families were to read their charts, would they recognize their plans? Would they say, “Yes, these are our goals, and we are clear about the work needed to get there”? It’s time to abandon the rut of assuming clients are noncompliant. The problem isn’t them; it’s us! Instead of trying to get people to comply with plans created for them, plans need to be created that people are motivated to achieve – their plans. This webinar will explore motivational interviewing skills and techniques by applying them to classic challenging end-of-life care situations. (Incidentally, motivational interviewing techniques can also be instrumental in our personal lives.)
