Community Outreach

Digital Community Outreach-Health Literacy
-
When organizations share information with people that is too hard to understand, it creates a health literacy problem.
-
Health literacy can help us find, understand, and use health information to prevent health problems.
-
Digital communication tools, including mobile health apps, telemedicine and online health information resources, have emerged as powerful platforms for promoting and improving health literacy leading to better health outcomes.
-
Key points related to health literacy and prevention of health problems include:
-
Making good decisions about health.
-
Getting necessary medical care, including preventative care.
-
Taking medicines correctly.
-
Managing chronic diseases.
-
Leading a healthy lifestyle.
