Health literacy means being able to find, understand and use basic health information and services to take care of one’s daily health needs. In this episode of Arthritis At Home, Ms. Ellen Wang, ACE’s programs coordinator, physiotherapy-health literacy PhD student, discusses the findings from ACE’s National Survey on Arthritis and Health Literacy.
