Me first:Health Coaching Workshop

Our health coaching training builds on the Me first model of child-centred communication to develop your skills in health coaching conversations, maximising opportunities to discuss lifestyle factors with CYP and collaboratively set goals around health and care needs.

Aims and objectives 

Health coaching skills can support clinicians and other health care professionals to develop children’s and young people’s capacity to consider lifestyle changes, and fully participate in their care. Coaching underpins the continuum of shared decision making, person centred care and behaviour change to enable people to have positive conversations about their health. This training builds on the Me first model of child centred communication to develop skills in health coaching conversations, maximising opportunities to discuss lifestyle factors and setting goals in partnership about health and care needs.

Me first Health Coaching is beneficial for all health and care professionals who work with children and young people clinically.
