🔦 Spotlight on Health Literacy 🔦
Health literacy is crucial for empowering patients to take control of their health. Clear communication and accessible information help patients make informed decisions, leading to better health outcomes.
However, only 18% of patients reported feeling very well informed about their healthcare processes, according to the Global Health Literacy Report Card. This highlights the need for health-literate systems that prioritise patient understanding and engagement.
✅ Check out the Global Health Literacy Report Card that Lymphoma Coalition published this year to learn more about these insights: https://t.co/QMyunP7Tsr
