Making Every Contact Count (MECC) aims to provide advice and support for behaviour change, so that Sefton residents can have better health and live longer healthier lives. We know that staff across health, local authority and voluntary sectors have thousands of contacts every day with individuals and are ideally placed to promote improved wellbeing and healthy lifestyles. The aim of the training is to maximise the opportunities participants have to increase the number and quality of brief interventions in Sefton.
The training takes place during a 2 hour session and is aimed at everyone working, living or volunteering in Sefton. The content provides an overview for non-health professionals and is particularly useful for front line staff that see lots of people during their work.
The objectives of the training are to;
• Provide an overview of the health and wellbeing of Sefton’s population
• Increase knowledge about the key health messages
• Know what support services are available and what they provide and signpost people to them
• Introduce the skills to have a healthy chat
• Recognise the opportunities to have a healthy chat
• Use the 3A’s to deliver a health chat in Sefton
