CEH Consultancy Helps You:
What’s the difference between Health Literacy and Communication?
Health literacy is the use of a set of skills and abilities. Communication is the process of exchanging information. Some, but not all, of the skills required for communication, are the same as health literacy skills. For example, a person could have excellent communication skills, but not be very health literate. However, to communicate effectively about health, one would have to be health literate.”
