The FDA Office of Women’s Health (OWH), in partnership with the HRSA Patient Safety and Clinical Pharmacy Services Collaborative (PSPC), has launched a new, web-based training course for health professionals. The medication safety module entitled “Does My Patient Understand?” highlights best practices for improving patient/provider communication and addressing factors such as low health literacy that limit a patient’s ability to safely use their medications. The course also explains how OWH consumer health materials can be used in clinical settings to improve patient education, compliance, and health outcomes.
The module provides one hour of continuing education credit for pharmacists, nurses, and physicians. The course can be accessed at:
