- Health professions are largely self-regulated.
- Primary healthcare in Canada has four pillars: teams, access, information, and healthy living.
- Healthcare delivery settings include institutional (hospitals, long-term care, etc.) and community sectors (physician offices, community health centres, etc).
- Healthcare includes five levels of care, with health promotion enabling control over health improvement as the first level.
Module 9: Patient Education
- Health literacy is the ability to access, understand, evaluate, and communicate health information to maintain health.
- Key components of health literacy include understanding information, describing symptoms, finding help, and managing medications.

- Key factors affecting digital health literacy include geographic location, education level, age, and income.
Basic Learning Principles for Patient Education
- Learning environments are essential for patient learning.
- Key learning factors include emotional capacity, intellectual capacity, physical capacity, and developmental stage.
- Effective teaching includes techniques like association, imitation, motivation, spacing of material, recency/primacy effects, and prompt feedback.
- Learning takes place in various contexts.
- Cognitive, Affective, and Psychomotor domains are key domains of learning.
Module 10: Growth and Development (Part One)
- Human growth and development are continuous and intricate processes, based on timing and a sequence. A typical pattern aids in detecting and preventing issues.
- Physical growth involves measurable increases in physical measurements.
- Development involves increasing functional capacity, from biological and environmental interactions.
- Major Categories of influencing factors include genetic, environmental, and interacting factors.
- Piaget's Theory of Cognitive Development has four stages: sensorimotor, preoperational, concrete operational, and formal operational.
