WEBINAR | The Rising Tide of Health Literacy

April 9, 2025, 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm CDT

Low health literacy is a widespread challenge, with 9 out of 10 U.S. adults struggling to understand and use medical information. This communication gap leads to medication errors, non-adherence, and poor health outcomes.  Join us for a webinar with Greg O’Neill, MSN, APRN, AGCNS-BC, NPD-BC, NEA-BC, Director of Patient & Family Health Education at ChristianaCare, who discusses the impact of health literacy on patient care and explore practical strategies— including digital tools—to improve understanding and adherence.

  2. Leverage Technology for Patient Education – Learn how digital tools can personalize medication instructions and reduce errors.
