The World Health Organization’s Regional Office for Europe recently released an educational textbook describing how health professionals can use the Ida Motivation Tools (the Line, the Box, and the Circle) to better understand and empower patients to change their lifestyle and behavior.

The WHO textbook, titled “Engage in the Process of Change; Facts and Methods,” explains how the motivation tools can help support health professionals in a range of medical areas, such as surgery, cardiology and audiology. The textbook emphasizes that the tools are easy-to-use and flexible enough to adapt to the individual patient, making them an excellent resource for doctors and other health care professionals who want to support their patients through the process of change.

The European Union of Hearing Aid Acousticians (EUHA) has invited the Ida Institute to present the Motivation Tools at four upcoming EUHA technical seminars this March. These seminars will help introduce hearing care professionals across Germany to Ida’s easy-to-implement tools and methods.
