The overall goal of the Healthy Roads Media project (www.healthyroadsmedia.org) is to understand how information technology can be used to improve access to health information for low-literacy and non-English speaking populations. The English version of these new materials is available and within the next couple of months they will be available in Spanish, Somali and Bosnian. Each topic is available as a written handout (PDF), a narrated audio file (MP3) and a compressed "movie-like" multimedia file. There are three topics - 1. How to Use the 911 emergency telephone system. 2. When to go to the emergency room 3. What to expect in the emergency room Please feel free to download and use the materials. If you use these materials, or any of our other resources, please consider providing some feedback because we are continually learning from the experience of others and adjusting our approach.
