About this event
Motivational Interviewing (MI) is a proven, patient-centred communication technique that helps healthcare professionals guide patients toward positive behaviour change without resistance or judgment.
Whether you're a nurse, physician, pharmacist or allied health professional, MI is a critical skill that enhances trust, supports better health outcomes, and transforms clinical conversations.
What You’ll Learn:
- The Core principles of MI as developed by Miller and Rollnick
- Techniques to navigate patient ambivalence and build motivation
- Practical tools to apply MI in real clinical settings
- Real-world practice through role-playing and feedback
“It’s not about telling people what to do—it’s about helping them discover why and how to do it themselves.”
