Cultural Communications and Health Literacy
This discussion focuses on exploring ways to improve health literacy and access to health information by lowering barriers and eliminating obstacles. According to the Web site HealthyPeople.gov, health communications and health information technology are an important part of the goal to improve health quality outcomes and diminish health disparities. Based on readings in this unit, the scope of the discussion could include the impact of almost any aspect of health literacy and effective communications, including limitations on access to the Internet and linguistic issues.
