Freire argued that traditional educational methods were inherently oppressive because they served the interest of the elite, instituted what he called \"the banking method\" in hopes to turn people into better workers. In contrast to this, Freire advocated for an education that was liberating and required dialogue. Dialogue, however, could only take place with profound love. This article reflects on Freire's call for profound love and dialogue within his pedagogical framework, and its necessity for social and political change. Further, this article explores what Freire meant by profound love and dialogue, and explores how love and dialogue are applicable to current and future health literacy and health education efforts.

This study examined how racial composition of multiple past and current social environments was related to adults' health literacy.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>In this study, 546 adult patients at a primary care clinic in St. Louis, Missouri, completed a self-administered written questionnaire that assessed demographic characteristics and a verbally administered component that assessed health literacy with the Rapid Estimate of Adult Literacy in Medicine - Revised (REALM-R) and Newest Vital Sign (NVS), and self-reported racial composition of six past and four current social environments. Multilevel logistic regression models were built to examine the relationships between racial composition of past and current social environments and health literacy.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Most participants identified as Black or multiracial (61%), had a high school diploma or less (54%), and household income <$20,000 (72%). About 56% had adequate health literacy based on REALM-R and 38% based on NVS. In regression models, participants with multiple past white environments (e.g., locations/conditions in which most of the people who live, go to school, work, and have leisure time are White) and (vs. 0 or 1) were more likely to have adequate health literacy based on REALM-R (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] = 1.79; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.04-3.07). Similarly, participants who had multiple past white social environments were more likely (aO<i>R</i> = 1.94, 95% CI: 1.15-3.27) to have adequate health literacy based on NVS than those who had not. The racial composition of current social environments was not significantly associated with health literacy in either model.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>Racial composition of past, but not current, educational and residential social environments was significantly associated with adult health literacy. The results highlight the importance of examining the impact of social determinants over the life course on health literacy. The findings suggest that policies ensuring equitable access to educational resources in school and community contexts is critical to improving equitable health literacy.

The purpose of the Communicate to CARE (Clear Communication, Achieve Understanding with Teach-Back, Receptive to our patient family needs, Empathetic care delivery) study was to use theories and strategies from implementation science to scale up health literacy practices in a pediatric Ears, Nose, and Throat (ENT) clinic.</p><p><strong>Brief description of activity: </strong>Expanding on previous efforts that simply reflected on barriers, the CARE team identified barriers within the local context pre-implementation to select strategies to directly address barriers during health literacy implementation. The RE-AIM framework was used to evaluate the reach, effectiveness, adoption, implementation, and maintenance of health literacy practices.</p><p><strong>Implementation: </strong>Over 18 months, the CARE team delivered multiple implementation strategies, including external facilitator, microlessons, preparing champions, audit and feedback, local consensus discussions, and small test of change. We tailored health literacy practices to clinic team roles to accommodate the clinic workflow.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>ENT team mean ratings on acceptability, appropriateness, and feasibility remained >4 indicating a high likelihood of successful implementation. Caregiver <i>always</i> ratings significantly increased from baseline to 12 months for easy-to-understand medication instructions (74%-96%), test results (54%-96%), know what to do if had questions (89%-96%), and encouraged to talk about health problems (76%-90%). Caregiver ratings dropped slightly at 18 months, indicating a need for booster training. While one third of caregivers reported Teach-Back practice across all time periods, the ENT team reported increased practice from baseline (42%), 6 (61%) and 12 months (70%).</p><p><strong>Lessons learned: </strong>Over the first 12 months, the external facilitator delivered implementation strategies with weekly contact, tapering contact over the final 6 months. The local champion became engaged in the CARE study through a quality improvement project with meaningful outcomes for the clinic and an incentivization program for scholarly endeavors. Lunch and learn sessions helped build relationships between the CARE and ENT team to discuss and problem solve issues. The 5-item CAHPS health literacy composite proved to be sensitive to changes during implementation of health literacy practices. Integrating these items into standard follow up surveys with patients and families would help realize the return on investment for health literacy implementation.

{"title":"The Influence of Dr. Rima Rudd's Organizational Health Literacy Scholarship in Maryland.","authors":"Cynthia Baur, Catherine Maybury, Lindsay Rosenfeld, Leah Richey","doi":"10.3928/24748307-20240814-01","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.3928/24748307-20240814-01","url":null,"abstract":"<p><strong>Background: </strong>This article analyzes and reflects on Dr. Rima Rudd's organizational health literacy ideas and tools and their influence on the field generally and on four projects over 12 years in Maryland specifically.</p><p><strong>Objective: </strong>We present four organizational health literacy projects - two from oral health and two from COVID-19 vaccination - that used or were influenced by Dr. Rudd's the Health Literacy Environment of Hospitals and Health Centers.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>In the oral health projects, we describe the organizational assessments we conducted, the assessment results, and the actions organizations took in response. In a Frederick, Maryland, COVID-19 project, we worked with multiple organizations in a single city to train them in the organizational assessment process, and we report the activities and results of this training. In the Baltimore, Maryland COVID-19 project, we provided general information about organizational health literacy and trained key health professionals in local organizations.</p><p><strong>Key results: </strong>Our results confirm that Dr. Rudd's tools work mainly as intended because they help organizations or third-party evaluators identify health literacy barriers and create health literacy insights. Also, we observed that organizational health literacy tools can support organizations' interest in equity goals and increase their willingness to spend time on health literacy projects.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>Translating knowledge and skills to actions can require more time than organizations can commit or be more difficult than they can handle. In our projects, the four most positive examples were driven by a collaboration between our team and a change champion who had the power to institute new ideas and actions. While it can take time and money to gain traction, our Maryland work shows that organizational assessments are accessible, practical and tangible. We conclude that Dr. Rudd's influence extends beyond specific tools and is reflected in the field's acceptance of organizational and professional responsibility for health literacy as an equity and justice issue.
