Understanding the Canadian Holistic Online Consultation

The Canadian Holistic Online Consultation has been designed for use by three groups of people with very different health knowledge and skill levels.

1. Group one is health care workers with specific training, either at the professional level as in various types of doctors, or at the supportive level for other health care workers with specialized training. The online consultation was designed as an aid to health care workers who have a provincial/state licence to dispense health advice. These people would use their training as they see fit, (as their licence provides). They now have the Progress Chart with a series of numbers as scores to use as guides for advice. As there are many different types of health care professionals, the online consultation was designed to be of use to all of them. When viewing the Consultation Progress Chart, each practitioner can pick what they feel is pertinent to their particular specialty. Given that lifestyle improvement has common denominators to all health professions, many different professions would be using similar data on a client.
2. Group two would be composed of specially trained Lifestyle Instruction Aid (LIA) instructors/health advisors. For the purposes of the LIA instructor mandate, no health care training is necessary for this group. This is because the focus of the helping aid by these people is directed at the narrow focus of the LIA Action Plan items. These items have already been selected for the client by the Lifestyle Report of Findings delivered after the client finished taking the consultation online. No health decisions have to be made by these LIA instructors other than motivational help to achieve preset goals in the Action Plan. These instructors/health advisors need only learn the protocols of their mandate. The beauty of this process becomes clear to those who have followed the scientific research on lifestyle modification which shows that motivational help is a prime requisite for success in lifestyle modification, given the difficulties present in this field. Lifestyle instructors will have the same Progress Chart available to them that doctors have.
3. Group three is the general public. This group will get a comprehensive Lifestyle Report of Findings that will be around 35 pages long with some 38 recommendations based on their score results. They will not get a progress chart as they have all their numbers in their RoF.

International Standard

One of the overall goals of the project is to set an international standard for health advice that can be regulated from a central agency. Thus, all self possessed organizations dispensing untrained or weak non-standardized advice would be encouraged to migrate to a standard concept on healthy lifestyle recommendations that is based on scientific principles with measurable outcomes. Getting everyone involved reading from the same page has its advantages. The Canadian Holistic Online Consultation achieves these goals admirably. It is another tool in the race to improve health and wellness.

There are three important aspects of lifestyle improvement, or wellness, or optimal health, or any name you wish to call it.

1. First, there needs to be a measure performed in order to know where a client is at. In our project, that measure is called the Canadian Holistic Online Consultation located at www.TheQ.ca.
2. Second, there needs to be one-on-one help available. That help can either be a very expensive professional level help or an inexpensive lifestyle instructor level help. They will both achieve the same results. Provided they are both focused on the same result then one will not achieve any better results than the other. An obvious choice for governments is to go with the lesser expensive methodology.
3. Thirdly, active self-help is necessary. There needs to be an effort toward active self-help. Without this aspect the community is caught up in a terribly expensive passive system of dealing with disease processes on a professional level after diseases have been allowed to begin. That is not efficient, not a bright way to do things, and causes a terrible amount of suffering, not to mention early death. The old way of passive care by a medical physician using drugs and surgery, needs to give way to the new modern collaborative team work standards including active self-help.

Familiarize Yourself

To start things off at familiarizing yourself with our concepts we recommend that you take the Canadian Holistic Online Consultation today. It is not expensive. Have a look at your own scores and from there you can choose to help yourself, all by yourself, or you can seek additional expert help. You will know your lifestyle numbers and will see how easy it will be to make decisions about your own lifestyle choices. Contact us for more information if you would like to learn how to become an agent or how your organization can become an agent and generate commissions.

We do not see commissions as any type of conflict of interest. We do not see how helping people get healthy, stay healthy, and save the government millions of dollars at the same time, can be a conflict. Those who think that making money from helping people get healthy, and stay healthy, is some how a conflict for people in the disease caring field, need to reassess their thinking and realign it to the modern era. One way we would suggest that a government can break this mental hold is to offer monetary incentives to medical people who can show improved scores on the Canadian Holistic Online Consultation. More about that at a future date.
