Abstract
Limited health literacy (LHL) is associated with faster kidney deterioration. To maintain kidney function, health care professionals (HCPs) promote self-management. However, in chronic kidney disease (CKD) care organizations, patients with LHL report multiple communication and self-management barriers. The need for health literacy responsive organizations, and multi-component interventions targeted at patients and HCPs, is recognized. We aimed to determine the objectives and strategies of such an intervention, and to co-create and evaluate it.
