Dave McHattie:
Profile:
During my career as an engineer and professional metallurgist I was involved in a 2 year preparation and writing of a Guide to Health for the Hard Metals Industry Association along with a series of health issue lectures specific to working with reactive and volatile co-compound refractory metals. This stimulated an interest in self-management particularly when I developed a long term health condition and subsequently joined a then very new Expert Patients Programme course. The course inspired me to train as a tutor and I progressed to becoming an assessor for EPP, after tutoring/assessing some 30 courses I progressed to tutor training and I am now a EPP Lead trainer with recognition as a Stanford Master Trainer.
Having a unique range of self-management and professional skills to draw upon, and my initial training in motivational interviewing, my interest was drawn towards co-authoring and developing the flexible specific needs programme called HOPE with Dr Andy Turner at Coventry University resulting in an Honorary Research Fellowship. I have delivered and developed a range of specialist HOPE courses for mental health problems, Alzheimer’s, parents of children with ASD/Asperger’s, ADD/ADHD, carers of people with Learning Difficulties and cancer survivors. As the principle trainer for HOPE, I have trained 16 tutors and continue a supportive role for tutors during course delivery.
As a consultant for Coventry Carers Centre, I organise and run EPP Looking After Me courses for carers in the Coventry area.
