Hello,

Not disregarding the ongoing discussion about labeling people at all ... But
also trying to answer your question ... I and others have created a health
literacy curriculum for health professionals that involves a simulated
patient exercise ­ it is now entering its third year of being given. If you
would like, contact me off list and we can figure out a way to get the
information to you.

You might also check out the health literacy curriculum collection I started
some time ago online ­ others have done the same of course ­ at
www.advancinghealthliteracy.com/curricula.html ­ and by the way if anyone
has additions to that collection please submit them to me directly.

Best,

Andrew Pleasant
