SUPPORTING A HEALTHY INITIATIVE: MOVE!®

Wednesday, May 22nd, 2013

Over 75% of US Veterans struggle with their weight. MOVE!® is a national weight management program designed to help Veterans lose weight, keep it off, and improve their health.

The MOVE!® weight loss program is the largest weight loss program in the world. The program is not a diet; it is a lifestyle change program with varying degrees of support as needed to teach Veterans how to make and maintain long-term changes in eating habits and physical activity. There are different ways to participate in the program depending on the Veteran’s requirements and schedule. By providing self-management tools, Veterans are equipped to make changes that will improve their health.

At its core, MOVE!® is a patient-centered weight self-management program. Oak Grove’s role was to design and create engaging Web-based training for the clinicians responsible for screening, supporting, educating, and guiding Veterans throughout their journey to improved health.

“We are so impressed! You pulled of the interactivity, included some video at important points, and effectively used the audio and periodic overlay pictures to illustrate key concepts. Overall, the training is interesting, clear, engaging, and such a vast improvement over the prior training. We think the field is going to love this training.”

Kenneth R. Jones, Ph.D.
Clinical Health Psychologist
National Program Director for Weight Management/MOVE!®

The MOVE!® course presents tools for clinicians to tailor their approach when discussing the program with individual patients and covers topics such as how to screen Veterans for participation; the menu of programs available to Veterans in the program; and information on nutrition, exercise, and mentoring.
