What this Trial Is About
Health literacy refers to personal and relational factors affecting a persons ability to aquire, understand and use health information and health services. In a need assessment study, it was found that there is a need to focus on health literacy factors in the follow-up of people with cancer in the health care services. Thus, this project evaluate the effect of a health literacy intervention in cancer. The intervention provides patients with nurse-led tailored follow-up by phone/digital/personal meetings that addresses their individual HL needs, particularly those needs that impact their quality of life, symptom burden, self-management, and health economic costs. Our main goal is to improve the patients' health literacy, with secondary goals of improving their quality of life, symptom burden, and self-management, and reducing their health care costs.
