Summary
The purpose of this presentation is to critically evaluate outcomes of a health coaching curriculum for medical assistants.

We will describe and share our curriculum, report outcomes from the training and intervention, and discuss next steps in research and dissemination. We recommend nurse managers, implementation researchers, and educators consider attending.
