Island Health Care (IHC), a federally qualified health center on Martha’s Vineyard, addresses healthcare challenges for residents, 8.8% of whom live at or below the poverty line! Despite the recognition of community health workers' importance over the years they often lack digital tools & are often disconnected from traditional healthcare technology systems. In 2022, graduate students at Boston University worked on #CommCare, to develop a tool that could support these #CommunityHealthWorkers in all aspects of their work. This collaboration resulted in a flexible digital tool which has led to ▪️Consistent documentation ▪️Time savings ▪️Standardized operations. ▪️Enhanced collaboration with partners setting the stage for broader adoption Read more about this transformative partnership>> https://okt.to/ZL3Teu #DigitalHealth #CommunityHealthcare #HealthEquity

LinkedIn friends! Super excited to share the full, digital version of the Health Literacy Playbook I collaborated in developing with the Pima County Health and Communications Departments. In it, you will find a brief introduction to health literacy, topics related to advancing health literacy, and the key plays to put the concepts into action! It is my hope that with the increasing focus on health equity in both public health and health care, more professionals will come to see the value and impact of health literacy as a tool on the roadmap to achieving health equity. It's not just good for business, it is the just thing to do. #healthcare #publichealth #healthliteracy

💡 Using science to fix problematic language that hurts the bottom line 🎤 Keynote speaker 📖 Author of The Inclusive Language Field Guide
Are you or someone you know interested in health literacy? Then you might be interested in next month's IHA Health Literacy Conference. It's virtual, and runs from May 14-16. I'm kicking things off with the intro plenary early on May 14th. Because when you're doing health literacy outreach and work, inclusive language is an incredibly useful tool. Link to the conference is in the comments. #HealthLiteracy #InclusiveMedicine #InclusiveLanguage #Plenary
