Do you ❤ health literacy?
Posted July 11, 2016
I wanted to share a fantastic and practical resource with all of you. If you work in the health sector, whether hands on with patients, in public health, research or policy, this will be extremely useful in your day-to-day work.
The We ❤ Health Literacy newsletter is a free weekly publication by Communicate Health. The short and sweet email newsletters cover topics that will help you communicate health information more clearly, simply and effectively. For example:
- How to get around tricky jargon terms
- Enhancing text with visuals
- Plain language
- Typography
- Cultural sensitivity
- And more!
Sign up with your email address to receive the We ❤ Health Literacy newsletter.
Here are some links to newsletters I personally found helpful.
