Patient education programs
Patient education programs are organized efforts to help individuals understand their health conditions and treatments. These programs provide information about managing illnesses, medication use, healthy lifestyle choices, and preventive care. The goal is to empower patients to make informed decisions about their health, improve their ability to follow treatment plans, and prevent complications. They can include classes, workshops, printed materials, or one-on-one counseling, all designed to support patients in taking an active role in maintaining their well-being.
