Health communication is the study and practice of how information about health is shared and understood. It involves various methods, including verbal communication, written materials, and digital platforms, to convey important health messages to individuals and communities. Effective health communication aims to inform, educate, and influence health-related decisions and behaviors. This field encompasses a range of topics, such as public health campaigns, patient education, and health literacy. By improving communication strategies, health professionals can better engage with patients and the public, ultimately leading to improved health outcomes and a greater understanding of health issues.
