On July 19, 2022, participants, staff, and volunteers at the Robert E. Barr Senior Center in Brundidge, AL attended CANHI’s Questions Are the Answer Workshop. The workshop utilizes tools from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services’ Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) toolkit to empower individuals to ask questions about their health care. Attendees also shared their experiences in communicating with their health care providers.  

During the workshop, attendees were given a workbook with tips to encourage patient-provider interaction, including a worksheet that allows them to write down questions to take with them to appointments. Southeast Alabama AHEC offers workshops to promote health literacy and COVID-19 awareness through its partnership with CANHI.

Thank you to Center Manager, Mrs. Arnold, and other leadership for hosting CANHI for this event. We can’t wait to come back to Brundidge!
