Develop infographics with all stakeholders on board.

Abstract

<p>Health information is a key health management strategy to support patients and family caregivers at home. However, patients often find the health information incomprehensible, which leaves them anxious, and information overloaded [<a href="https://scholars.direct/Articles/nursing/jnp-5-066.php?jid=nursing#ref1">1</a>]. Therefore, validity and usability of most pictorial educational handouts that health providers distribute is concerning. The research to date has tended to focus on the content or validity of health information rather than information presentation, information delivery, and handout usability in a target population. This is because our current practice of developing educational handout is led primarily by clinicians with little participation from patients. The challenges that require solving are (1) Inadequate patient engagement in handout development and (2) Lack of structured evaluation measurement to guide its development process. We aim to address these challenges by preliminarily testing an evidence-based handout development protocol.<br></p>
