Increasing Patient Participation in Goal Planning

Interactive Tools

Plan a Lobby Day!

Lobby Days are fun and interactive displays which invite patients and their family members to learn more about a particular topic. Lobby Days are held usually held in the waiting room during the treatment day.

To set up a display focused on goal planning, you may want to include:

  • Take away information on how your patients can set up a goal planning session with you
  • Dates when the Plan of Care sessions are scheduled
  • Information on Goal Planning
  • Posters with inspiration quotes on goals setting
  • Posters with conversation-starting questions such as “What do YOU want to do?” “What would you do if you felt healthier?”

This resource on Lobby Days focuses on home modalities, but the basics to organize and run a Lobby Day are the same, such as What is a lobby Day, How To hold a lobby Day, and Evaluating Your Lobby Day. Details are included in the booklet.
