This course is a recording of a previously hosted live webinar event and is not accredited. Polling and question submission features are not available for this recording. Format and structure may differ from those of standard Medbridge courses.
The second session of the three-part cohort learning series builds on the foundational skills from session 1 by focusing on deeper client-centered exploration and guiding patients toward actionable solutions. Participants will complete assigned prework courses that introduce techniques for understanding a client’s perspective and facilitating collaborative problem-solving. In the live mentorship session, instructor Hélène Thériault will address participant questions, unpack tougher concepts, and demonstrate practical strategies using real case submissions. Rehabilitation professionals across settings will learn how to apply these tools in diverse environments—from clinics and schools to acute care and athletic performance. This session equips learners to strengthen patient motivation, enhance shared decision-making, and prepare for the precision coaching skills addressed in session 3.
