 Non-Educational Interventions

Educating and changing behavior can be accomplished using a variety of strategies. In addition to certified educational interventions, non-educational interventions such as reminders, consults, academic detailing, to name a few, are effective in moving healthcare professionals along the change continuum. Often, simple tactics such as reminders and opportunities for reflection are all that is required to move one from knowing how to do something to actually doing it.
