E4 Enlist Your Patient as a Partner
Overview
Overview
Module 4 concludes the E4 Model. It provides an exploration into VVV skills and techniques for the fourth E of the E4 Model: Enlist your patient as a partner. The module content underscores the research showing that discussing patient-identified goals as a starting point for healthcare decision-making leads to improved patient adherence. Without shared decision-making, there is greater risk of non-adherence. Skills development includes tools and techniques which invite the patient to collaborate in decision-making in virtual video visits. This is accomplished through verbal prompts such as asking specifically about goals of care and exploring what factors in the patient’s life may affect adherence. Understanding your patient’s goals for care is an essential element of shared decision-making, significantly improving the likelihood of patient commitment and adherence. The module addresses the virtual video visit closure process such as clarification of care plan with script suggestions for expression of hope, as appropriate. Finally, the module addresses the newly coined phrase of “Virtual Video Fatigue,” with suggestions for prevention and self-care.
