Good advice alone is not enough when it comes to helping patients manage chronic and acute conditions and make healthier choices in such areas as diet, and preventive care. “Even the briefest clinical interaction can serve to build trust, clarify patients' goals as well as reasons for ambivalence, and guide them to take positive steps. Vivid sample dialogues, tips, and scripts illustrate ways to incorporate this evidence-based approach into diverse health care settings, including remote work.”
