The lack of health literacy is not only found in the field of cardiology. It seems to be a growing concern especially with the growing elderly population. As a health education specialist, I plan to conduct thorough research on why the health literacy rate is low and what methods will add to the success of my program planning. I plan to develop an evaluation plan for those who have been part of the health literacy program to determine the success rate of this new program (Competency 4.1). I will do this through the distribution of a survey to the cardiac patients who partook in the program (Competency 4.2). I will use this survey to collect data on how to better improve the program and what patients learned in terms of health literacy (Competency 4.3). The results I pool from this will be compared and contrasted with results from other findings (Competency 4.4). I will use the findings from this survey to modify the program for the better. I will inform stakeholders of the evaluation results (Competency 4.5).
