Improving health literacy can prevent 1 million hospital visits a year.
Let's work together.
Assess
We use the Enliven Health Literacy Resource to understand gaps and health literacy improvement opportunities. The resource outlines 10 attributes of a health literacy organization that focus on the ease people have in finding, understanding and using health information and services.
Plan
We can create improvement plans that integrate health literacy best practices into areas of staff training, patient education and internal and external communications, along with recommended resources and tools.
Train
Our Health Literacy 101 and Lunch & Lit sessions are offered online or in person and customized for your staff. Training can also be customized for your teams and include topics like using plain language, teach-back techniques, cultural competency and design best practices.
Communicate
Our team can develop your health-literature to ensure all healthcare communications meet health literacy standards. From digital to print, external and internal, we'll ensure your materials are easy to find, understand and use.
