    Area of Science:

    • Medical Education
    • Health Communication
    • Interprofessional Practice

    Background:

    • Effective communication is crucial for enhancing health care outcomes.
    • Low health literacy poses risks, yet health professionals often lack training in communication strategies.
    • There is a need to improve health literacy communication practices in patient care.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate if practicing health literacy communication in a simulated team setting improves learner skills, attitudes, and confidence.
    • To assess the effectiveness of a novel team-based interprofessional Objective Structured Clinical Examination (iOSCE) focused on health literacy.
    • To determine if an iOSCE can enhance health literacy communication and interprofessional teamwork.

    Main Methods:

    • Implementation of a novel, team-based interprofessional Objective Structured Clinical Examination (iOSCE) centered on health literacy.
    • Evaluation using three levels: student self-assessment, standardized patient assessment, and observer assessment of interprofessional teamwork.
    • Assessing changes in health literacy communication skills, confidence, and beliefs about teamwork.

    Main Results:

    • Statistically significant improvements were observed in students' confidence in health literacy communication.
    • Learners showed enhanced beliefs, attitudes, and understanding of interprofessional teamwork.
    • The iOSCE effectively assessed health literacy practices in an interprofessional context.

    Conclusions:

    • An Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE) is an effective tool for assessing health literacy communication.
    • This pilot demonstrates the value of interprofessional teamwork simulations for health professional education.
    • Improving health literacy communication through simulation enhances patient care and team collaboration.
