Hospital discharge instructions: comprehension and compliance among older adults.
The purpose of this prospective cohort study was to quantify the prevalence of non-comprehension and non-compliance with discharge instructions and to identify associated patient characteristics. The investigators concluded that non-comprehension of discharge instructions among older adults was prevalent, multi-factorial, and varies by domain.

Is low health literacy associated with increased emergency department utilization and recidivism?
The study objective was to determine whether patients with low health literacy have higher emergency department (ED) use and higher ED recidivism than patients with adequate health literacy. It found that patients with inadequate health literacy had higher ED use compared to those with adequate health literacy.

English language proficiency, health literacy, and trust in physician are associated with shared decision making in rheumatoid arthritis.
The objective of this study was to examine patterns of perceived communication around decision making in 2 cohorts of adults with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The investigators found that nearly one-third of subjects reported suboptimal shared decision making communication (SDM) with their clinicians, regardless of cohort. Lower trust in physician was independently associated with suboptimal SDM communication in both cohorts.

A daughter's frustration with the dearth of patient- and family-centered care.
This article is a first-person account of a hospitalization that describes the lack of patient and family inclusion in decision-making, failure to use plain language and other health literacy strategies, and disregard for patient and family preferences. The author concludes that if the health care system is going to shift from paternalistic to patient- and family-centered, providers must be trained in how to communicate and partner with patients and families. The author references resources to help hospitals make systematic changes to hard wire health literate and patient- and family-centered care.

Physicians' roles in creating health literate organizations: a call to action.
Physicians are being called on to deliver patient-centered care, reduce medical errors, and generally increase health care quality and health outcomes, all while containing costs. Fully engaging patients in prevention, decision-making and self-management activities is critical to achieving these aims. The authors of this paper concluded that being health literate must be a new way of delivering care rather than an add-on. For national health literacy goals to be met, health care organizations must ingrain health literacy into their routines.
