This is a wonderful list of change-readiness.

As someone who begrudgingly learned motivational interviewing to help homebound patients in home healthcare, I wish I had had this list years ago!

Unfortunately, when working for a healthcare corporation, you lose the "right to refusal" -- so I'd usually be working with patients for 3+ months who never had any intention of making a change, with the explicit goal of showing a change according to their documentation.

It wasn't a great fit, and I'm much happier now -- but I also wasn't ready to change, then! Cheers!
