  • How to Find Out About Your Health HANDbook

This HANDbook is a health literacy-based, patient engagement tool developed to help patients find reliable health information online. It was written at an easy-to-read level, and patient and consumer feedback helped inform its development. The HANDbook is designed to be introduced by clinicians, who will encourage patients to learn more about a new diagnosis and provide patients with Internet search terms.

This HANDbook is also available in Spanish. 

If you would like more information on a licensing agreement to use these in your organization, please contact us by emailing healthliteracy@uams.edu or calling 501-686-2595.
