This toolkit is designed for a broad continuum of healthcare providers, including direct providers, administrators and healthcare organizations and educates about the importance of maintaining a healthy weight, motivational interviewing and skills for engaging in weight management conversations, assessing readiness for behavior change, and evidence based treatment options.

The Well Body Toolkit contains a variety of information and step-by-step instructions about:
  • Weight and health
  • Assessment and planning for change
  • Evidence-based treatments
  • Maintaining a health body weight
  • Weight management resources
This toolkit, along with other resources including Tobacco Cessation toolkits and supplements for priority populations, are located on the BHWP website.  [Source:  COPrevent]
