Video Summary
In the "Tips to Improve Diabetes Care" webinar, experts Dr. Julia Price and Dr. Nicole Bariolos focused on enhancing diabetes care through psychosocial support and mental health awareness. Dr. Price highlighted the application of motivational interviewing, emphasizing that motivation significantly influences behavior change. She suggested using techniques like "ask-provide-ask" and scaling questions to engage patients, thus promoting self-efficacy and reducing clinical stress. Motivational interviewing encourages a partnership with patients, contrasting the traditional medical model where providers dictate care.<br /><br />Dr. Bariolos discussed common mental health challenges faced by individuals with diabetes, including depression, anxiety, and eating disorders. She pointed out that diabetics face twice the likelihood of depression and anxiety compared to non-diabetics. The session offered practical tips for clinicians to handle diabetes distress by normalizing patient experiences and utilizing nonjudgmental language. <br /><br />Additionally, the webinar provided resources for managing mental health in diabetics, including motivational interviewing books and tools like the ABC model for stress management. The session highlighted the importance of recognizing patient expertise in their life context while addressing their mental and emotional needs. The webinar encouraged clinicians to set achievable goals for patients to foster a supportive environment for diabetes management.
