Matt’s Success Story of MI Theory in Practice

Scenario:

After her husband loses his ability to write, a woman begins contemplating placing him in memory care, as she believes there is nothing anyone can do to help her husband. She decides to contact me before making the decision to place him in a facility.

Care based on MI results:

After speaking with her, I discovered that the man was a former engineer who learned best through movement. I told her about your MI theory and how we can tap into her husband’s strengths to reteach him how to write. For several weeks, the woman and I employed a hand-over-hand technique, which helped him regain the ability to write.
