‘Health literacy’ is how people understand information about health and health care, and how they apply that information to their lives. It is important because it shapes the safety, quality and experience of care people receive.
Monash Health is offering employees an online training opportunity – an introduction to Health Literacy basics.
Health Literacy 101 will benefit anyone who is involved in communicating health messages, whether it’s training frontline teams in communicating effectively with patients, families and carers or building your team’s capacity to create easy-read, plain language materials and resources.
