Exceptional Patient Facilitation

Exceptional patient facilitation is about relationship building, exploring possibilities, and supporting the decision-making process. We show you how to maximize your interpersonal skills. The nature of a healthy, supportive relationship is to assist others in connecting with and in utilizing their resourcefulness, energy and goals. To increase ease is the very definition of facilitation - and that's what happens for both you and the patient throughout this training.

Values clarification is a core part of the facilitation process. What is important to your patient? What are your patient's concerns? What would your patient like to accomplish? What is your patient's preferred future? All these questions are rooted in values. When your patients see that you are truly interested in them and their health concerns, in a way that is supportive and collaborative, they will welcome and rely on your input and guidance.

"We are committed to the continual study of advanced facilitation as long as we serve patients. Terry and Janis's work has become foundational to our success."

-Dr. Susan Maples, Holt, Michigan

With a spirit of curiosity and exceptional facilitation skills, team members gather clear, concise, and useful information, build significant patient relationships, and support patients in consistently acting on behalf of their own wellness.
