Recognizing friction when working with a patient allows the clinician to gain insight into potential barriers to change. By recognizing this friction, the clinician creates an opportunity to facilitate moving toward positive health behavior outcomes. In this course, we explore ways to recognize friction in the health behavior change process during a home health visit. We examine the difference in patient outcomes when a clinician does not recognize friction in the change process versus when the clinician recognizes that friction. We will also see what it looks like when a clinician facilitates moving toward positive health behavior outcomes through strategies such as the pulling change method. At the end of the podcast, the listener will understand how to recognize barriers to change and employ strategies to overcome the friction in the change process.

1. Breaking Down Barriers to Change
In this podcast, we will hear an example of a typical home health visit. During the visit, a nurse is providing education to a patient regarding oxygen safety and is attempting to facilitate a health behavior change. In the first scenario, the nurse struggles to understand the barriers to change and increases the patient’s resistance to health behavior changes. In the second scenario, the nurse recognizes the friction and employs the pulling change method to support the patient in positive health behavior changes.
