💙 October is Health Literacy Month! 💙

Health literacy means being able to find, understand, and use health information to make informed decisions about your health. It’s about knowing what your healthcare team is telling you, understanding your medications, and feeling confident about your care.

🩺 What can patients do to improve their health literacy?

✅ Ask questions. If something is unclear, speak up! No question is too small.

✅ Speak up when you don’t understand. Ask your healthcare provider to explain things in simpler terms.

✅ Take notes. Write down important instructions, medications, and follow-up appointments.

✅ Use trusted sources. Get health information from your healthcare team and reliable health websites.

✅ Repeat it back. Explain instructions in your own words to make sure you understand them correctly.

✅ Bring support. Consider bringing a trusted friend or family member to appointments to help listen and take notes.

✨ Remember: You are an important part of your healthcare team! Understanding your health empowers you to make informed decisions, ask the right questions, and take an active role in your well-being.

Your health. Your questions. Your voice. You deserve to understand your care! 💙

Studies show a flu shot during pregnancy can protect you AND your baby from flu for several months after birth. This is because pregnant women pass on antibodies to the baby, reducing the risk of flu & potentially serious complications.

Talk to your doctor about a flu shot. More information: https://bit.ly/4f11GCX

Informed consent is critical to making the health care decisions that are right for you. Consult your health care provider for guidance based on your specific health needs and circumstances.
