Strengthening organisational health literacy is essential for every service that communicates with the public about their health, from statutory bodies to community groups and the voluntary sector. 💬 #HealthLiteracyMonth
Graphic which states Health Literacy Awareness Month with a quote from Jacqueline O'Hagan, Healthy City Coordinator, Belfast Healthy Cities “Beyond the ability to understand health information, challenges in health literacy can affect the trust we place in our institutions and in turn, our ability to understand and respond to risk. Strengthening organisational health literacy is essential, not just within healthcare but for every service that communicates with the public about their health, from statutory bodies to community groups and the voluntary sector.”
