Communicating about Health: Empowering Patrons to Communicate with Their Health Care Providers
Health questions are routinely asked at the reference desk, and often information is provided with additional encouragement to discuss the findings with the patron’s doctor. However, communicating with the health care provider may not be easy for many people for a variety of reasons. How can patients ask all of their questions if they only see the doctor for just five or ten minutes? What if there are cultural or language barriers? What can libraries or other information providers do to help people be active participants in their own health care? This webcast is geared to libraries and organizations that provide health information to the public, covering issues and resources around the topic of communication between patients and their health care team. The webcasts focuses on issues concerning barriers to communication, the complexity of the health care system, end-of-life issues, patient safety and patient rights. Participants will learn about the best resources and most effective strategies to help patrons learn about communicating with their health care providers in order to take an active role in their health. This webcast is the archived version of a session from the "Health e-Shows" series, a consumer health information series developed by Kelli Ham, NN/LM PSR Consumer Health Coordinator, in collaboration with Infopeople. Materials include the archived webcast, an audio podcast file, handouts and the PowerPoint slides used for the presentation.
