Forces impacting Primary Care
•Tension between population health and individual responsibility
•Government cost containment/New payment structures
•New roles and members of practices

What about our patients?
•Increasing incidence of chronic disease
•Multimorbidity
•Fraying social structures eroding traditional sources of support

attachment theory
•proposed by Bowlby as a way to understand why and how people form varying attachments to others
•formation of a secure attachment style depends on the existence of a “secure base” in early life
![Page 5: Creating an innovative way for the Patient- Centered Medical Home to respond to patients with complex problems and dysfunctional styles of interaction.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ece5503460f94bdab27/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Attachment Theory - basic concepts
(John Bowlby & Mary Ainsworth)

•Refugees…
•Marginalised…
•Damaged by early abuse/neglect
•Mothers (parents)…
•Elderly…
•Bereaved…
• and…
…special needs (to feel secure….)

•Doctors…!
•Nurses…!
•Receptionists…et al
PROFESSIONALS!

•The Practice as a Secure Base?
•What makes a Practice Secure/Insecure?
•For professionals?
•For patients?
•Understanding Patterns of Consultation?
A Useful Concept for Primary Care
![Page 9: Creating an innovative way for the Patient- Centered Medical Home to respond to patients with complex problems and dysfunctional styles of interaction.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ece5503460f94bdab27/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
•What does a practice feel like for those who work there?
•How is the boundary function managed?
•How does the practice express its capacity to be reflective? Mentalisation – self and other?
•Narrative competence? Shared history…story of the practice?
•Role of MH professionals? In or out?
•Role of play/creativity
•How is change/loss (and trauma) managed?
The Practice as a Secure BaseQuestions?

Mentalization
•“the mental process by which an individual implicitly and explicitly interprets the actions of himself and others as meaningful on the basis of intentional mental states such as personal desires, needs, feelings, beliefs and reasons” Bateman and Fonagy 2004
![Page 11: Creating an innovative way for the Patient- Centered Medical Home to respond to patients with complex problems and dysfunctional styles of interaction.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ece5503460f94bdab27/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Lack of secure emotional connection to parent -
Lack of a “secure base”
Impaired capacity to read emotional content of
interactions
Difficulty establishing a trusting relationship
Mistrust and misunderstanding of
medical context
Patients that interact with us inappropriately
“They must be trying to abuse me or the system”
Attachment Mentalization
![Page 12: Creating an innovative way for the Patient- Centered Medical Home to respond to patients with complex problems and dysfunctional styles of interaction.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ece5503460f94bdab27/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Mentalization & Emotion
•When it works - Positive emotions increase
•When it fails - Negative emotions increase
•Negative emotions appear to impair mentalization on FMRI scans
![Page 13: Creating an innovative way for the Patient- Centered Medical Home to respond to patients with complex problems and dysfunctional styles of interaction.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ece5503460f94bdab27/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
• 420 recorded visits to UK primary care with MUS
•Discussions analyzed utterance by utterance
• Physical intervention proposed more by docs than patients
• Few docs showed empathy
•Was there a failure of mentalization?

Balint groupsFirst established in the UK by Michael and Enid Balint
Utilize a case presentation/discussion format in a small group
Purpose is to reflectively explore specific "troubling" patients and the relationship
![Page 15: Creating an innovative way for the Patient- Centered Medical Home to respond to patients with complex problems and dysfunctional styles of interaction.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ece5503460f94bdab27/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Michael Balint Born in 1896 in Budapest, son
of a GP
Psychoanalytic training in Berlin and Budapest, emigrated to London, worked at the Tavistock Clinic
He and his 3rd wife, Enid, began the training/research seminars for GPs after WW II
1957 “The Doctor, his Patient and the Illness” published
![Page 16: Creating an innovative way for the Patient- Centered Medical Home to respond to patients with complex problems and dysfunctional styles of interaction.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ece5503460f94bdab27/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
“At the center of medicine there is always a human relationship between a patient and a doctor.”
-Michael Balint
![Page 17: Creating an innovative way for the Patient- Centered Medical Home to respond to patients with complex problems and dysfunctional styles of interaction.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ece5503460f94bdab27/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
“In contrast to didactics or reading, the Balint process reaches past the rational system to influence intuitive functioning. It does so by engaging the intuitive system through encouraging nonjudgmental speculation, while at the same time monitoring rationally by juxtaposing the doctor and patient's views.”
“One of the strengths of Balint work is that the group can take a problem and introspect out loud with the presenter, who is free to incorporate or reject new
understandings.”
Lichtenstein and Lustig, Integrating intuition and reasoning--how Balint groups can help medical decision making, Australian family physician 2006 vol. 35 (12) pp. 987-989

Cases•Presentations are spontaneous
•Patients we have ongoing relationships with
•Patients who we feel conflicted or strongly about (stuck)
•Patients that leave us feeling unfinished, who we lose sleep over
•Patients who we “take home” with us
•Patients that bubble up in the moment

Balint catalyzing formation of a secure
base•Provides a safe environment for clinical staff to
bring their difficult interactions with patients
•Multiple perspectives encouraged
•Playful speculation a plus
•Difficult emotions are surfaced and detoxified
•If successful the practice becomes a secure base for staff and patients
