Abstract Text Objectives Patient mindsets influence health outcomes; yet trainings focused on care teams’ understanding, recognizing, and shaping patient mindsets do not exist. This paper aims to describe and evaluate initial reception of the “Medicine Plus Mindset” training program. Methods Clinicians and staff at five primary care clinics (N = 186) in the San Francisco Bay Area received the Medicine Plus Mindset Training. The Medicine Plus Mindset training consists of a two-hour training program plus a one-hour follow-up session including: (a) evidence to help care teams understand patients’ mindsets’ influence on treatment; (b) a framework to support care teams in identifying specific patient mindsets; and (c) strategies to shape patient mindsets. Results We used a common model (Kirkpatrick) to evaluate the training based on participants’ reaction, learnings, and behavior. Reaction: Participants rated the training as highly useful and enjoyable. Learnings: The training increased the perceived importance of mindsets in healthcare and improved self-reported efficacy of using mindsets in practice. Behavior: The training increased reported frequency of shaping patient mindsets. Conclusions Development of this training and the study’s results introduce a promising and feasible approach for integrating mindset into clinical practice. Practice Implications Mindset training can add a valuable dimension to clinical care and should be integrated into training and clinical practice.
