DIALOG
Solution focused therapy
Free
DIALOG is a simple tool for assessing patient satisfaction with life and treatment. Used by health professionals with their patients, DIALOG is a quick and effective way to monitor 11 key life topics, and identify areas in need of improvement. A guide informed by Solution Focused Therapy is available to help address these problematic areas using a step-by-step approach.
• How DIALOG works
DIALOG asks for ratings of satisfaction on a 1 – 7 scale with:
- mental health
- physical health
- job situation
- accommodation
- leisure activities
- relationship with partner/family
- friendships
- personal safety
- medication
- practical help received
- meetings with mental health professionals.
• Customising DIALOG
DIALOG can ask ‘Do you need more help in this area?’ for each topic, and enable ratings from today’s session to be compared with any previous session.
‘DIALOG+’ – adds a therapeutic approach to the above for addressing areas in need of improvement. Topics can be selected for further consideration using a solution-focussed 4-step approach to problems. These steps are (i) understanding, (ii) looking forward, (iii) exploring options and (iv) agreeing on action. Specific action items can be recorded and reviewed later.
• Why use DIALOG?
Research demonstrates that using DIALOG routinely in the clinical setting can improve patients’ satisfaction with life and treatment, and reduce their number of unmet needs.
