The relationship between doctors and patients is important. When doctors and patients have a strong relationship, patients enjoy their care, follow doctors’ instructions, and have better health. However, we do not know how doctors create strong relationships with their patients. This study aimed to understand how doctors create strong relationships by video-recording appointments between 11 different doctors and a standardized patient. After each appointment, the doctor and the patient rated their relationship strength. Everything the doctors and patient said during their appointments was analyzed by researchers. Initial findings from this thesis suggest that doctors should be cautioned about asking several questions, and giving lots of information. Instead doctors should consider spending more time creating strong relationships with their patients by giving supportive statements. This thesis gives new information on how doctors and patients can create strong relationships to help patients enjoy their care, and have better health.

Members of Indiana State Department of Health
Members of the Indiana State Department of Health (ISDH) discussed the utilization of Brief Action Planning (BAP) in a statewide quality improvement initiative, The Indiana Primary Care Learning Collaborative (INPCLC). The INPCLC utilized The Chronic Care Model and the Model for Improvement as the foundation for practice transformation work with pilot teams from funded Federally Qualified Health Centers, Community Health Centers, and Rural Health Centers. ISDH has won awards for their efforts and has been asked to speak at statewide conferences about BAP and clinical practice. ISDH shared its successes engaging with hospital systems, Primary Care provider teams when embedding BAP into the clinical visit and electronic health record.

Procrastination is often dismissed or glibly laughed off, but researchers agree there are many serious medical, professional, and financial consequences for procrastinating. Anyone who has struggled with procrastination will attest to the ill effects. Treatment for procrastination is intense, involving methods such as cognitive behavioural therapy and goal setting, and there is great potential for the inclusion of Brief Action Planning. Margie Wiebe shared the Four Stages of Change for tackling procrastination and how she thinks BAP fits into the puzzle.
