At the center of medicine there is always a human relationship between a patient and a doctor - Michael Balint
[Balint Model] is a general approach which may throw light on the doctor-patient interaction and add depth to our understanding of it. (https://slideplayer.com/slide/2548820/)
VIDEO/ Facilitated group discussion of a difficult patient interaction (not quite a balint group model)
GROUP MODEL EXAMPLE:
Have a Provider present a case then let that Provider step outside of the case & let the group “work the case” by asking :1) If I were this provider, I might do 2) If I was this patient I would wonder. 3) If I were this parent/nurse, I would wonder.
What am I wanting, feeling, fearing, worried about with this case.
Dissociation of provider in the case.
Let us think about the interactions of the case from an outside perspective, NOT let’s talk about the exact Plans for the case/Treatment Team.
Techniques:
- Use narrative activities related to pain/cystic fibrosis/liver disease
- ABC’s of CBT
Results:
-Witnessing others, processing the case can provide interpersonal insight of the provider/patient dynamic.
-Creating a space for Professional Development & creating a community/communication pathways in treating the patient
