SUMMARY:Community of Practice: Clinical Workflows and AI: Practical Adoption in Health Centers
DESCRIPTION:Register Here \nCommunity of Practice \nHealth centers are navigating a rapidly evolving healthcare landscape where increasing patient demand\, workforce shortages\, administrative burden\, and growing expectations for quality outcomes require new approaches to care delivery. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is emerging as a powerful tool to support clinical decision-making\, patient engagement\, documentation\, population health management\, and cancer screening operations. Yet many health center leaders face important questions about where AI creates meaningful value\, how to evaluate rapidly expanding technologies\, and how to implement these tools responsibly while maintaining patient trust\, safety\, and regulatory compliance. \nThis six-session Community of Practice provides HRSA-supported health centers with a practical\, evidence-informed approach to understanding AI in real-world clinical environments. Through expert instruction\, peer learning\, current case studies\, and facilitated discussion\, participants will explore where AI improves patient identification\, outreach\, documentation\, follow-up\, and operational performance—and where caution\, governance\, and human oversight remain essential. Rather than focusing on technology alone\, this series emphasizes practical adoption strategies that help health centers strengthen cancer screening operations\, improve patient outcomes\, and make informed decisions about emerging technologies within the realities of federally funded primary care. \nSeries schedule: September TBD\, November 11\, December 23\, February 3\, March 17\, and April 28 at 12:00–1:00 p.m. ET.

SUMMARY:Turning Conversations into Action: Advanced MI Strategies for Healthcare Professionals
DESCRIPTION:This advanced Motivational Interviewing (MI) webinar is designed for clinicians and healthcare professionals who already understand foundational MI concepts and are ready to deepen their skills. Building on core principles such as OARS\, stages of change\, and the spirit of MI\, participants will learn how to strategically recognize and amplify change talk\, skillfully respond to sustain talk\, and guide patients toward meaningful\, self-directed action. Special emphasis is placed on using the DARN-CAT framework\, advanced reflective listening techniques\, importance and confidence scaling\, and collaborative action planning to improve engagement and follow-through in brief clinical encounters. Participants will leave with practical strategies to transform difficult conversations into opportunities for lasting behavior change. \nLearning Objectives: \n\nDifferentiate and strategically respond to change talk\, sustain talk\, and discord using advanced reflective listening techniques and the DARN-CAT framework.\nApply evocative MI strategies-including importance/confidence scaling\, values exploration\, and double-sided reflections-to strengthen patient motivation and resolve ambivalence.\nUse advanced reinforcement techniques such as complex reflections\, targeted affirmations\, and strategic summaries to amplify commitment language and enhance self-efficacy.\nFacilitate patient-generated action planning by translating motivation into SMART goals and realistic next steps that increase adherence and long-term behavior change.

SUMMARY:From Barriers to Breakthroughs: Rural Health Strategies for Improving Cancer Screening
DESCRIPTION:Rural communities continue to face significant barriers to timely cancer screening and follow-up care\, including geographic isolation\, workforce shortages\, transportation challenges\, fragmented referral systems\, and limited access to specialty services. These barriers contribute to delayed diagnoses and ongoing differences in breast\, cervical\, and colorectal cancer outcomes. \nThis six-session Community of Practice (CoP) is designed to help HRSA-supported health centers identify and address workflow inefficiencies\, strengthen community partnerships\, and implement practical strategies that can be expanded over time to improve cancer screening participation and patient follow-up among rural and populations with lower screening rates. \nThrough peer learning\, expert facilitation\, case-based discussions\, and action-oriented planning\, participants will explore innovative approaches\, including Rapid Improvement Events (RIEs)\, FOCUS-PDSA model quality improvement cycles\, mobile outreach models\, responsible use of AI-supported patient engagement\, and community-driven screening initiatives. \nParticipants will leave with practical tools\, tested strategies\, and implementation ideas that can be adapted to their own health center environments. \nGoals\nBy participating in this CoP\, participants will: \n\nIdentify operational and workflow barriers impacting cancer screening in rural settings\nApply rapid-cycle improvement strategies to strengthen screening workflows\nExplore innovative outreach models\, including mobile screening and AI-supported engagement\nStrengthen community partnerships that improve access to preventive care\nLearn scalable strategies to sustain and spread successful screening interventions\nCollaborate with peer organizations facing similar rural healthcare challenges
