Amid the ongoing changes in how health care is administered and
financed, prevention-oriented care is a critical and cost-effective
method for improving population health through primary care. As the
key figure in promoting patients' health and prevention of disease,
the primary care provider can play a major role in patient
engagement, self-management, and behavior change. Prevention
Practice in Primary Care systematically explores state-of-the-art
practical approaches to effective prevention in primary care.
Guided by theory and evidence, the book reviews approaches to risk
factor identification and modification for the major causes of
mortality in adulthood, including cancer, stroke, and
cardiovascular disease. Topical coverage in this book includes: *
the practical applications of genomics and proteomics to
personalizing prevention * transformative approaches to practice
change, including the patient-centered medical home, academic
detailing, and practice facilitation * Engaging self-management and
behavior change using counseling tools (goal setting, assessing the
stage of change, motivational interviewing, and the five A's)
Prevention Practice in Primary Care is a vital, practical guidebook
for the implementation of evidence-based prevention to improve
patient health. Brief, simple summaries and innovative content make
it book a valuable reference for busy practitioners and students
alike.
