Improving patient outcomes with motivational interviewing

Motivational Interviewing for Health Care Professionals: A Sensible Approach Bruce A. Berger and William A. Villaume

Featured in

Motivational Interviewing for Health Care Professionals: A Sensible Approach presents a new way of teaching the theory and practice of motivational interviewing (MI) to health care professionals (HCPs). MI has been shown to improve treatment adherence and outcomes, promote health behavior change, improve patient satisfaction with care, and increase retention rates in complex case management. This book describes how everyday persuasive language and strategies can trigger resistance in patients and explains how this opposition can be overcome through building rapport with the patient and listening to the patient’s reasoning and concerns.

The author notes in the preface that, ‘No one should ever lose their vision because it is difficult for pharmacists to find the information or a compounded medication is not properly prepared according to USP standards.... Patients deserve to receive quality compounded preparations.’ I couldn’t agree more, and such a complete reference on ophthalmics is long overdue. I donated my copy to the hospital pharmacist at our institution, and strongly feel that any pharmacy that prepares ophthalmics should have this book. —Patrick J. McDonnell, PharmD Temple University School of Pharmacy
