11. Drawing on the techniques of Motivational
Interviewing
• Resist the ‘righting reflex
• “Goal of the practitioner is to minimise resistance
by not actually fighting against it and to avoid
engendering it by trying to fix the problem”
• Understand the person’s motivation
• “We need to listen for and actively seek
information about goals, beliefs and aspirations
and then explore how these relate to present
circumstances.”
12. • Listen to the person
• Expressed through ‘reflective listening’ and an attitude of
acceptance of the person’s feelings and perspectives.
• One way to know you’re in that empathetic stance is to be
able to look at the world from the person’s point of view
and say truthfully “That makes sense. I can see why you
view it that way.” Acceptance is not agreement or
approval.
• Acceptance facilitates change where attempts to
pressure change provoke resistance
• Empower the person
• Support persons belief that they are capable, have ideas
for solutions and can enact changes if they decide to do
so.
• It is important that practitioners actively cultivate a
stance of hope and communicate that hope to people.
13. • Think about a time when you have
employed one or more of these approaches
in your interactions with someone:
• “Resisting the righting reflex”
• Understanding the person’s motivation
• Supporting the person to feel empowered

What must happen in my
day to stay well

cared for, etc.)
What are your Aspirations?
If I could I would…
1
45. What would success look like if we:
Changed the things that are not working,
Built on the things that are working,
Moved toward the persons aspirations?
Success
47. A Person Centred Outcome…..
• Is a personal goal not a service goal
• Is something you have influence/control over
• Is measurable and specific
• May have obstacles in the way of achieving it
All these make the outcome well formed
48. Does it keep something that is working?
Change something that isn’t working?
Does it move towards a future you want?
49. A Solution …….
• Is there resource you need to achieve your
outcome
• It can be an item or an activity
• It can have a cost associated with it, or be
free
50. Questions to test is it an outcome or a solution
If you got your outcome…what would it...
• Give you?
• Do for you?
• Make possible for you?
51. To have a car
What would that:-
• Give you?
– Get me from home to where I want to go
• Do for you?
– Let me go and see my friends once a week, go into the
city shopping and get to work experience
• Make possible for you?
– I can just do it - without mum and dads help
– I have four friends
– I know the shops in MK
– I have work experience to travel to
52. To have a car
So what is the real outcome?
To go and visit my friends, once a week
Go into the city - shopping every weekend by myself
(To work five days a week) To get to work experience on
time.
53. 3 hours of speech and language therapy
What would that:
Give you?
Time with a speech therapist
Do for you?
Help them be more easily understood by their friends
when they are at the community centre?
Make possible for you?
Friendships, taking part in things, feeling more confident
with other people.
54. 3 hours of speech and language therapy
So what is the real
outcome?
" l am understood by my
friends and I can do activities
with them in the at the
community centre three times a
week”
55. What is getting in the way or stopping it
from happening right now?
What’s stopping you?
59. So which bit of what we do is
actually the “outcome”?
Outcomes are the reason we do stuff,
not the stuff that we do.
60. • Outcome = the reason we do stuff.
• Input = the stuff that we have or
do.
• Output = the stuff we can
measure.
Or put simply
61. Where I feel good
Where I’m a customer
Where I’m a member
Where relationships can
be strengthened
Where new relationships
can be made (3rd places)

The inclusion traffic lights help us
think about the places people go
and the people they connect with.
Sometimes people need specialist
support, but that doesn’t mean
they should find themselves ex-
cluded from the opportunities
others benefit from. We can define
communities as places that people
come together.
Nadia makes her own lunch
in the life skills session
at the day centre.
Between 10am-2pm Nadia
volunteers as a cook at
the disability drop-in cafe.
Nadia works in the kitchen
at a local pub.
Residents loved to watch
Brenda sorting out the Herb
window box at the care home.
Brenda was the first to check
the runner beans on
the outreach project.
It was the first time Brenda
had seeds to swap aT the
allotment AGM meeting.
63. In community building, the third place is the social
surroundings separate from the two usual social
environments of home ("first place") and the
workplace ("second place"). Examples of third places
would be environments such as churches, cafes,
clubs, public libraries, or park
