May’s Behavioral Health Technical Assistance learning session focused on Behavior Plan Basics, where participants learned about the core elements of effective behavior plans as well as common pitfalls and why behavior plans fail. Sample behavior plans and behavior contracts that support healthy routines in older children were shared (e.g. sleep, managing electronics).
21 practice sites successfully completed the 12-month collaborative, “Using Technology to Improve Care for Patients with Chronic Conditions”. There were 9 adult, 3 family medicine and 9 pediatric practices who expanded the use of technology to help patients better manage their chronic conditions.
As we move into the 2nd year of the UnitedHealthcare-funded Integrated Behavioral Health (IBH) Learning Collaborative, CTC-RI would like to recognize the practices graduating out of the collaborative, as well as the practices joining for year 2.
The 6 Rhode to Equity teams came together this month to learn about change management using the SWITCH framework.
We hope that you can join us for our June 10 Quarterly Breakfast of Champions, 7:30-9:00AM. Presentations will highlight important RI work being done to improve care for people with diabetes from clinical, community/clinical and patient perspectives.
We are excited to welcome the following presenters:
