Person-Centred Skills Workshops

Maximising treatment benefits through effective training. 

How often do you consider to what extent a treatment is actually being utilised? How often is prescribed treatment taken but not taken or administered in the most optimal way? Our workshops and training programmes are tailored to you, helping your team to maximise treatment benefits within healthcare. 

Optimise Treatment Delivery

Treat the Person, not the Patient

Phrases such as “I aim to treat my patients as I would like to be treated” or “I treat people as I would want a family member to be treated” are common and should be praised for the caring attitude that underlies it. However, they ultimately fall short as they do not recognise that we should be aiming to treat the person as they would wish to be treated.

Inject New Treatment Skills into Your Team

Intramuscular injections are a common way of treatment being administered.

It is a skilled procedure that must aim to safeguard the patient and maximise the therapeutic benefit. However, there is a mountain of evidence that suggests that many intramuscular injections do not reach the muscle or, if they do, are not doing so adequately. 

This can have a knock-on effect into the treatment outcomes, leading to patient discomfort and harm, over prescribing, and negative patient experience. How often, when reviewing the effectiveness of an injectable treatment do you consider if there had been any administration issues apart from refusal?


Skillix can run IM injection workshops that take a decision-making approach that focuses on the person receiving the injection. We help your team consider whether the patient’s choices, concerns, and goals as well as their physical characteristics. The workshops also help the professional to understand characteristics of the injection itself and how that relates to the person as well as supporting the professional’s own skill set.

“There is no single intervention strategy, or package of strategies that has been shown to be effective across all patients, conditions and settings. Consequently, interventions that target adherence must be tailored to the particular illness-related demands experienced by the patient.

Improving adherence requires a continuous and dynamic process.”


WHO, 2003

Treat the Person, not the Patient

At Skillix, we practice our own person-centred skills by making sure all our workshops are tailored to your needs. We work hard to make them engaging and leave a positive impact, developing new techniques and decision-making skills that will lead to more effective treatment delivery. 

  • Education Material Writing

    We can supplement the skills learned in our workshops with educational material tailored to your needs. From techniques on how to deliver treatment information while considering the person involved to learning refreshers, we support your team in their ongoing development. 

  • Practical Skills Development

    From successful intramuscular injections to how to achieve beneficial treatment outcomes, we prioritise your team’s ability to provide more effective, practical care. We do not just think about the abstract, theoretical side of practice, instead providing them with the tools that help them manage challenges during their day to day practice.

  • In-Person Training

    Some of our clients choose to remove distractions and provide a fresh perspective with a new environment. Others choose to hold the workshops and professional skills development in the workplace, enabling the team to relax into a familiar environment as they face new skills and ideas. Wherever you decide, our workshops are delivered at a location to suit you by our expert facilitators.  

  • Concordance and Treatment Management

    Working in a concordant way means coming together with the person you want to help to develop a mutual agreement about the treatment and its pathway. That way it gets to the heart of the person’s own motivations, thus maximising the benefits achievable for them rather than the benefits that are hoped for by the professional. 

    One of the keys to help a person understand the purpose, goals, and difficulties in treatment is the provision of information. It is a difficult area to get right. Skillix can offer support in educational material writing as well as workshops on person-centred treatment education and decision making.
