Health literacy training

From the MidContinental Region NN/LM blog:

The Health Resources and Services Administration offers a new,

free, online course, "Unified Health Communication 101: Addressing

Health Literacy, Cultural Competency, and Limited English

Proficiency". Those taking the course can receive five credits

(CEU/CE, CHES, CME, CNE). The course is valuable for librarians as

they reach out to provide support and information to the public and

health professionals and would provide them another option to

obtain continuing education units. In addition, The Unified Health

Communication course complements The Medical Library Association

and National Institutes of Health/National Library of Medicine

(NLM) work in literacy research, curriculum design and hospital

outreach. Freely share this information with other colleagues.
