🔎 What is Health Literacy?

Understanding your health shouldn't feel impossible.
Too often, people leave medical visits confused, anxious, and unsure of what to do next. Whether it’s navigating a diagnosis, understanding treatment options, or making sense of lab results, health information can be overwhelming, especially when it's not delivered clearly.

💬 Why Health Literacy Matters
According to the CDC, nearly 9 out of 10 adults struggle to understand and use everyday health information.
This contributes to higher rates of hospitalization, missed diagnoses, medication errors, and health disparities—especially in marginalized communities.
Health literacy encompasses more than just reading skills. It’s about communication, trust, and equity. And improving it saves lives.
