Description

At this program, we will be joined by a registered nurse from our local hospital. During this program, we will learn about the importance of why health literacy is important to us, our loved ones, everyone. We will learn how to read prescriptions, how to make doctors appointments, and learn how to advocate for ourselves in a medical setting. We will also have time for a Q&A, where patrons can ask our guest speaker questions they want/need to know.
