Join us for an informative webinar about health literacy and how it can be incorporated into conversations about tobacco & nicotine use with patients/clients. Participants will learn about health literacy, why it’s important, and some health literacy principles. We will discuss several studies about health literacy and how it impacts tobacco use, treatment, prevention, and quit attempts. Health literacy can improve patient understanding, self-efficacy, compliance, and health outcomes.
