Question

Andrea, Improved client outcomes is a major goal for all healthcare systems and for the providers. Now, it can be an elusive goal as there are many influential factors impacting a client outcome, such as those related to social determinants of health (SDOH). For example, a SDOH impacting client health is one's education level. Often we look to patient education to assist patients in managing their plans of care. However, patient education is not a one fits all intervention. It is important for the NP to recognize individual differences patient's present with understanding health (medical) related information, in other words health literacy. Andrea and Class, How can you address client outcomes through patient education that meets the patient's specific needs and level of understanding? What tools or assessments would you employ to enhance your understanding of a patient's health literacy? Dr. Coleman.
