Motivational Interviewing Basics

Event Details

Join us for a workshop about motivational interviewing, a client- centered counseling style which helps clients resolve feelings of ambivalence and make changes in their lives. These feelings could be in relationship to any area of life that is hindering progress, whether in

personal relationships, accessing and working toward healthcare goals or major life transitions, like moving into senior housing. Jacqueline will teach you how to participate collaboratively with seniors to move

care forward.

1.0 CE credit will be awarded to Illinois nurses, social workers, professional counselors and licensed nursing home administrators. CEUs will be provided by Elderwerks.

Speakers

Jacqueline Boyd
Founder of The Care Plan
http://the-care-plan.com/
The Care Plan is the brainchild of Jacqueline Boyd, a long time aging specialist and LGBTQI advocate. Jacqueline’s passion for health and aging started when she was a Certified Nursing Assistant in college. Working in nursing homes gave her a deep appreciation for the struggles many face throughout the aging process. The swift physical and cognitive changes, the lack of clear resources and advice left many families in the dark about how to best support their loved ones, and at times guilty for the choices they had made. It was here that seeds for The Care Plan were planted, in an empathy for the pain and uncertainty many clients and their families experienced.

Jacqueline spent much of her professional career providing care management services in her 9 years with a private duty caregiving agency. Providing guidance and advocacy for people in need illuminated time and again the need for earlier interventions and planning. She saw how a comprehensive approach can avoid common crisis along the path to aging, yet no real solution existed.

Belmont Village
There’s something for everyone at Belmont Village – days are social and active, and residents have a voice in creating and choosing activities. With so many opportunities, it’s not uncommon for our residents to take up new interests and many resume old ones as well – some even teach classes. From exercise to art instruction, and everything in between, there’s always something interesting to do, a chance to learn and new things to experience in our senior living communities.

At Belmont Village, senior life is purposeful and meaningful for our residents. Through collaborations with leading universities, we have championed cognitive health and research-based memory care programs. Our enrichment programs focus on a Whole Brain Fitness lifestyle that encourages successful aging through the right nutrition, abundant creative outlets, social engagement, exercise, and life-long learning, with the goal of creating a “just right challenge” for each resident.

The Care Plan
In her life outside of work, Jackie has been a strong and consistent presence within Chicago’s LGBTQI community, from serving on the Chances Dances organizing board and the Critical Fierceness Grant Board (granting funds to Chicago-based artists who identify as queer) to serving as the Praise and Worship Leader for Broadway United Methodist Church located in Lakeview, a reconciling and welcoming church community; and co-founding Project Fierce Chicago in January of 2013, a non-profit organization dedicated to developing housing for LGBTQI-identified youth who experience homelessness.

Research in the past few years has confirmed what many already know: LGBTQI persons are at risk for falling through the cracks in healthcare due to experiences of being discriminated against, receiving sub-standard services, or outright denied healthcare based on gender or sexual orientation. With a passion for the well-being of the LGBTQI community and experience in health and aging, Jacqueline established The Care Plan, LLC in August of 2015. She has served over 10,000 seniors and their families in her lifetime. As an active member of the LGBTQI community she is aware of the health and aging needs specific to sexual orientation and committed to making a difference in their lives.

The Care Plan was established to provide the expert advice and guidance necessary to successfully navigate the challenges of health and aging. We are dedicated to helping you plan today and map your future, all on your terms.
