This four-page synthesis is the first in a series of "Research Briefs on Health Communication" that The Centre for Literacy of Quebec will be publishing as part of an ongoing Health Literacy Project with the McGill University Health Centre (MUHC) in Montreal, Quebec. The series aims to digest the key findings of research projects that have formally evaluated or assessed the impact of using alternative (adapted) communication media/methods in patient education. In addition to plain language, we will be publishing briefs on the use of audiotapes, videotapes, interactive media, and image-based materials. Until then, the plain language brief (available in HTML and PDF) can be found on The Centre for Literacy's homepage (scroll to the bottom for links to all of our Health Literacy Project reports). Plain Language and Patient Education http://www.nald.ca/litcent.htm If you would like to order print copies of this brief, call The Centre for Literacy for information, at: (514) 931-8731 ext. 1415. We look forward to your feedback.
