Understanding the Health Literacy Gap
In today's healthcare landscape, effective communication is key to delivering quality care.

Language plays a crucial role in health literacy. Miscommunication and misunderstanding can lead to medical errors, non-compliance with treatment plans, and ultimately, poorer health outcomes. As language specialists, we prioritize the use of clear and concise communication strategies to ensure patients understand and can make informed decisions about their health.
