Abstract:
Underserved individuals need comprehensive health care. Educational resources that meet health care needs can promote wellness. This descriptive study evaluated effects of preferred teaching modules on perceived health of underserved clients of a nurse-managed center. Participants (N = 101) were between 19 and 61 (M = 38.7); the majority was female (68.3%) with a high-school education (M = 12.17). Most participants (65%) identified health education as very important; 92% used at least one teaching module. Age, gender, and education were not related to importance of health education. Use of various teaching modules was positively correlated with perceived improved health (p < .05). Participants who used a combination of videos and pamphlets reported the greatest improvement (p < .000).
