Health Communication on 2009-05-13
- Health communication encompasses the study and use of
  communication strategies to inform and influence individual and community
  decisions that enhance health
- recognized as a necessary element of efforts to improve personal and public
  health.
- 14 more annotations...
- - radio, and television
  - messages in printed materials (such as pamphlets)
  - Increasingly, health improvement activities are taking advantage of digital technologies,
    such as CD-ROM and the World Wide Web (Web), that can target audiences, tailor
    messages, and engage people in interactive, ongoing exchanges about health
  - A set of Leading Health Indicators, which focus on key
    health improvement activities and are described in Healthy People 2010:
    Understanding and Improving Health, all depend to some extent on effective
    health communication.
  - Advances
    in medical and consumer health informatics are changing the delivery of health
    information and services and are likely to have a growing impact on individual
    and community health.3, 4, 11, [21]
    The convergence
    of media (computers, telephones, television, radio, video, print, and audio)
    and the emergence of the Internet create a nearly ubiquitous networked
    communication infrastructure.
  - Delivery channels such as
    the Internet expand the choices available for health professionals to reach
    patients and consumers and for patients and consumers to interact with health
    professionals and with each other (for example, in online support groups).
  - In addition, many people want information
    to be available when and where they need it most. Health information should be
    not only easily accessible but also of good quality and relevant for the needs
    of the person. The increasing use of the Internet as a source for health
    information will require greater awareness of the importance of the quality of
    information.
  - For
    health communication to contribute to the improvement of personal and community
    health during the first decade of the 21st century, stakeholders, including
    health professionals, researchers, public officials, and the lay public, must
    collaborate on a range of activities.
  - training of
    health professionals in the science of communication and the use of communication
    technologies
  - Increase the number of centers for excellence that seek to advance the research and practice of health
    communication.
  - 11-5.
    
    (Developmental)
  - (1)
    promoting the adoption of health communication theories and practices in health
    care, disease prevention, and health promotion initiatives,
  - evaluating communication strategies, messages,
    materials, and resources, (6) fostering networking and collaboration among
    health communicators, health educators, and other health professionals, (7)
    promoting health communication skills training for health professionals
  - These
    centers should provide expert staff, model curricula with core competencies in
    health communication and media technologies, appropriately equipped media labs,
    research seminars, continuing education and distance learning courses, and training
    and placement programs to expand the pool of health communication professionals
    and health professionals with communication skills.
