Making Every Contact Count: Having healthy conversations in your role

Overview

Making Every Contact Count (MECC) is an approach to behaviour change that uses day-to-day interactions that organisations and individuals have with people to support them in making changes to their physical and mental health and wellbeing.

The Public Health division at Nottinghamshire County Council (NCC) is working to evolve and expand the use of MECC training and principles across council departments and the wider health and social care system. The programme will aim to provide staff and organisations with the training, information, environment and support they need to have 'healthy' (MECC) conversations, complementing and expanding the reach and impact of current and future prevention initiatives.  

This survey should take around 5 to 10 minutes to complete. Your insights and experiences would be extremely valuable in helping the Public Health team understand what training staff have previously received and what helps or hinders your ability to have healthy conversations with the people you speak to.
