Abstract:

People with low health literacy are more likely compared with the general population to experience poor health, more long-term illness and shorter lives. Health literacy is a modifiable competency and, with appropriate knowledge and training, nurses can integrate health literacy communication techniques into their routine conversations with people to improve their ability to access health services and look after their own health.
