Participants who complete the seminar will receive a certificate of completion from Pathway to Wellness\, LLC. \nReasons to Attend: \n\nIncorporating lifestyle medicine into your current practice\nLeveraging lifestyle medicine to prevent and treat type 2 diabetes\, hypertension\, high cholesterol\, depression\, anxiety\, osteoporosis\, and certain cancers\nCurrent and Coming Reimbursement Opportunities\nThe strategies that produce the best results for weight-loss counseling\nGuidance to prescribe exercise and perform risk assessments\nHealth coaching (why it’s important to therapy)\nClinician self-care: Being a health role model\nGetting patients to make healthy changes\nImproving patient communication and motivational interviewing\nBuilding an effective lifestyle medicine team\nEngaging resistant patients\nEffectively prescribing exercise or increased physical activity\n\nMore information and online registration: Rural Hospital + RHC Workshop: Practicing Lifestyle Medicine in the Rural Health Clinic
