HollyHappy Holidays! 

 

Thanks for your ongoing interest in health literacy. Individually and collectively, we accomplished a great deal this year when it comes to raising awareness and improving health understanding.

 

But our job is not yet done. In my opinion, an important task ahead is to make a compelling business case about why health literacy matters. I'll work on this in 2012 and hope you will too.

 

 Here's what's new in Health Literacy Consulting

 HLC How-To Tip: No Time for Health Literacy?

When it comes to health literacy, many professionals are justifiably concerned about adding yet one more task to schedules that are already too busy. And administrators are concerned about additional costs. This month's How-To Tip looks at ways to start finding time, and making a case, for health literacy.

Health Literacy from A to Z: Second Edition. 

The new second edition of my book includes abundant strategies, stories, and resources to help you clearly and simply communicate health messages.  

 

Here's my brag: For a while, this book was on Amazon's Top 10 List of books about Doctor-Patient Relations! And there are already two 5-star reviews! 

 

Jones & Bartlett Learning is offering 20% off the book's list price plus free ground shipping within the U.S. When you order, simply enter the discount code, HELEN. Offer ends 12/31/11.
