This session is designed for all providers, including medical and behavioral health professionals, who want to enhance their contextual interviewing (CI) skills to deliver high-quality primary care by building deeper connections with patients and understanding what matters most to them. In addition to covering the core components of CI, this presentation will introduce ACCESS-V, a framework that helps clinicians integrate and organize adverse childhood experiences, culture, internal and external context, social determinants of health, and values into the clinical picture. Attendees will learn how to apply this dynamic approach through a clinical case.
