342 – Ditch the Medical Jargon for This: Health Literacy Insights with Dr. Richard Zraick

  • Summary

  • “Research shows that one out of two patients forgets half the information given to them within 24 hours, and the other half remembers it incorrectly.”

    ☝️This is just ONE of the many golden nuggets of information that today’s guest throws at us.

    The ability to explain complex medical information and recommendations to patients in a way that’s easy to understand is a true and necessary art, which is why we have Richard Zraick Ph.D., CCC-SLP, F-ASHA, CHSE from the University of Central Florida here to talk about it!

    In this week's episode, you’ll learn all about..

    The two types of health literacy and how SLPs are involved in both
    How tools like ChatGPT can help clinicians create more accessible patient education materials
    A teaching method that, according to some studies, significantly reduces misunderstandings (and it only adds about 30 seconds to a clinical session.)
    How to tackle poor health literacy from a multidisciplinary perspective
    Strategies YOU can adopt to reduce medical jargon and set patients up for greater long-term outcomes.
