Weight Management Toolkit 5

The fifth of six toolkits. This toolkit focuses on enhancing consultation skills for effective patient management

Introduction

In previous toolkits we have covered nutrition, physical activity, behavioural science approaches and pharmacological interventions as part of pharmacy weight loss interventions. This toolkit brings it all together in structured weight management consultations and follow-ups. After tips on establishing rapport and acknowledging stigma, we suggest a practical framework for conducting a dialogue with a person seeking advice and treatment for weight loss, from the initial consultation onwards.
