SMART goal planning: barriers and enablers
O BARRIERS = those things that get in the way
O ENABLERS = those things that help us out when it comes to taking health-promotion action.
In health promotion, some barriers and enablers are predictable and some will be out of your control. Some barriers and enablers may be unique to your situation, or could happen across a range of health-promotion actions.
O In the ladder and brick wall below, list some possible enablers and barriers to health-promoting action.
Barriers and Enablers….
O We need to be able to make use of our enablers and overcome our barriers if health promotion is to be successful. Choose two barriers and two enablers from the list above and explain how they could be used or overcome. Enablers – make use of this by... Barrier – overcome this by...
