FLIGHT / VIDAS
FLIGHT/VIDAS is a multi-year project supported by the US National Institutes of Health to create health literacy tools to help people find, understand, and use information to maintain and improve their health.
Creating tools to measure health literacy and use them to help people understand their health.
The FLIGHT/VIDAS project includes development of the FLIGHT/VIDAS health literacy measure and screener, methods to identify persons with low health literacy and provide them with tailored health information, and mobile applications for chronic disease self-management.
Go the the Patient Portal page to see a demonstration of how the FLIGHT/VIDAS interventions provide health information in ways that patients can use.
