Health Literacy and Teach-Back

  • Supporting chronic disease self-management through health literacy and Teach-Back
  • Quick revision by our expert nurses on heart failure action plans and the use of respiratory devices
  • Meet local nurses, share knowledge, experience, ideas and information

The Teach-Back method is a way of checking for understanding in health consultations. Teach-Back has been shown to improve comprehension and knowledge retention and lower readmission rates.

TAYA PRESCOTT, Northern NSW Health Literacy Project Officer, NNSW LHD & NCPHN
