Health Education England have announced a new MECC toolkit to improve our knowledge of Making Every Contact Count and I would encourage you all to undertake this.
The Long Term Conditions and Prevention programme team in Health Education England have worked with Health Education England eLearning for healthcare (HEE elfh), to develop a MECC toolkit which is populated with reviewed resources and information previously hosted on the making every contact count microsite.This aims to support individual learners and organisations to use MECC effectively.
MECC is an approach to behaviour change that utilises the millions of day-to-day interactions that organisations and people have with other people to encourage changes in behaviour that have a positive effect on the health and wellbeing of individuals, communities and populations.
The wider MECC eLearning programme, consisting of 4 eLearning sessions, supports learners with developing an understanding of public health, emphasising how asking questions and listening effectively to people is a vital role for us all.
The new toolkit compliments existing eLearning sessions by bringing together a library of national and local resources to further support the development, evaluation and implementation of MECC. You can read more about the toolkit, including how to access it, by visiting the Making Every Contact Count programme page.
