Thank you to everyone who has already given me advice on teaching health
literacy
to physicians.

As part of the project I am developing, I want to do a
preliminary needs assessment both with the medical residents and their patients.
While I know about tools to measure health literacy, I am not familiar with any
tools to measure physicians' perceptions about the health literacy of specific
patients.

Does anyone have any experience with/knowledge about this aspect of it?


Thank you so much -
Anne Pemberton
