Motivational Interviewing in primary care

Mats Hogmark explores how Motivational Interviewing can strengthen conversations between doctors and patients in primary care. He describes the physician as an assistant rather than the person who must direct every decision, and considers how reflective listening can help practitioners come alongside patients while attending to both physical and emotional needs.

The conversation also explores whether MI can save time, the patient and doctor’s mutual roles, ideas, concerns and expectations, and compassion in healthcare. These themes connect with Reflective Listening, Partnership and Motivational Interviewing in Healthcare.
