Healthy Habits<\/b><\/p>\n

In healthcare, patient behaviour is an important factor when it comes to overall patient health. \u00a0What the patient does in their everyday life significantly impacts the state of their health (DiMatteo, Giordani, Lepper, & Thomas, 2002). \u00a0Michael works with at-risk populations and Alastair coordinates facilitation with chronic conditions patients. Both patient populations are different in terms of their specific needs however, both groups require a change in healthy habits in order to gain better health outcomes (Sjoerds, Luigjes, van den Brink, Denys, & Y\u00fccel, 2014) which requires open communication, intellectual risk-taking (IRT) and active engagement (AE).<\/p>\n

The process requires intrinsic motivation from the patient in order to gain adherence to the healthy habits (Sjoerds et al., 2014) that have been suggested by the doctor\/nurse facilitator. To gain this motivation patients need to communicate with the facilitator (Ryan, Patrick, Deci, & Williams, 2008) which may be difficult due to the patient\u2019s reluctance to talk openly about such sensitive subject matter.<\/p>\n

The Healthy Habits framework is designed to allow patients greater IRT and AE with facilitators through online coursework to gain a better understanding of the patient\u2019s ability to adhere to the healthy habit suggestions. This online model supports mobility, and provides patients access to Healthy Habit resources and consultation in a comfortable, timely, or convenient environment (Leveille et al., 2009).<\/p>\n

Blending HealthChange\u00ae Methodology (Gale, 2014), Merrill\u2019s first principles of instruction (Merrill, 2002), the Critical Thinking Framework For Any Discipline (Duron, 2006), Bloom\u2019s taxonomy (Krathwohl, 2002), and being mindful of Carol Dweck\u2019s theory of growth mindset of an empathetic design, we developed a five step approach to achieve healthy habits.<\/p>\n

The Process<\/b><\/p>\n

Step one: Prep & Begin<\/b><\/p>\n

Patients are prepared to begin taking the course to gain healthy habits.<\/p>\n

Step two: Discuss & Motivate<\/b><\/p>\n

Patients are more likely to be uncomfortable discussing their insecurities and thoughts around their health. Facilitators engage patients to find patient\u2019s goals and motivations, facilitators can employ talk therapy (Short, 2018) to encourage engagement.<\/p>\n

Step three: Track & Document<\/b><\/p>\n

Facilitators ask patients to begin and share a diary of progress that fulfills their healthy habit journey toward their goals. Patients may experience difficulty recalling events or situations. It is important for patients to speak openly and discuss their progress. By tracking and documenting progress the learner will have more information to share with the facilitator.<\/p>\n

Step four: Meet & Feedback<\/b><\/p>\n

Patients are encouraged to meet regularly and share successes, drawbacks, feelings and ideas documented in step three. If patients continue to show reluctance to engage, facilitators may employ talk therapy, cognitive coaching, or other motivators to encourage IRT and AE. \u00a0Steps three and four may repeat several times in order to achieve open communications and healthy habits. If necessary, the facilitator may need to refer to step two to re-evaluate patient\u2019s motivations.<\/p>\n

Step five: Test & Testimonial<\/b><\/p>\n

If the facilitator feels that the learner is ready, the facilitator may offer the learner to provide a video testimonial. This simultaneously tests the learner\u2019s confidence in speaking openly about their journey, helps motivate others to take part in Healthy Habits, and supports the organization providing the course.<\/p>\n

Conclusion<\/b><\/p>\n

As you may see, the Healthy Habits framework was developed to promote active engagement, and intellectual risk taking, through the consideration of an empathetic design. \u00a0This dynamic approach is designed to be adaptive, and flexible, to encourage growth of our learners.<\/p>\n

Feedback<\/b><\/p>\n

As we are learners in this development, we are thankful for your participation in this process. \u00a0We are interested in your perspective as an active participant to help us consider any possible barriers that we may not perceive through our lenses. Thank you for helping us grow.<\/p>\n
