Happy #HealthLiteracyMonth! At CommunicateHealth, we believe that writing and designing for health literacy benefits everyone.
“When patients with limited English proficiency have access to clear and understandable health information, they are empowered to make informed decisions about their health, leading to better outcomes and improved well-being. NIH is committed to providing clear and accessible health and science information so that everyone can benefit from it.”- Dr. Monica Bertagnolli, NIH Director. During this Health Literacy Month, learn how NIH is working to produce information that is actionable and culturally competent. https://bit.ly/3TVdj6R #HealthLiteracyNIH #HealthLiteracyMonth #LanguageAccess #LEP

For the past 4 years, CH has supported the development and evaluation of the Live to the Beat campaign. Now, we’re thrilled to support Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, CDC Foundation and the Atlanta Hypertension Initiative to adapt the campaign for a local audience in Georgia. Hypertension is complicated, and we’re honored to apply our equity-centered approach to this important topic.

We’re sharing the latest insights from our Lunch and Learn series for CH staff! This month, our own Sarah Pomerantz and Henry Doherty led us in an exploration of the local #PublicHealth data landscape, including stakeholders and audiences, barriers to integrating multiple data systems, and how designing and sharing local data and tools can drive #HealthEquity. As part of this learning opportunity, we worked together to use data to solve a public health mystery. Want to give it a try? Take on “Outbreak at Watersedge” (and earn National Board of Public Health Examiners #CPH credit!): https://lnkd.in/eiRXJD6W
