Course overview
Staying healthy is a priority for everyone. When someone isn’t healthy, they visit a doctor. They might make a trip to the emergency room or take the recommended medication. Problem solved, right? Well, not necessarily. What if they don’t know what’s wrong or don’t understand what they’re being told when decisions have to be made?
To stay healthy, they need to stay informed. Asking the right questions helps them make the best decisions for themselves or their loved ones. Preparing for appointments allows them to get the most out of them, such as knowing what to ask and when. Improving their understanding enables them to manage their health effectively.
