Problem
a) Discuss the role of social determinants of health in causing health disparities
b) Define health literacy and then discuss its impact on health behaviours and outcomes
c) State your position on promoting improved health literacy to reduce poorer health
Rationale: Demonstrate your knowledge of the role of social determinants of health and health literacy in the health of Australians by critically analysing existing evidence. You will then need to build on this by synthesising current evidence to communicate your position on the need to promote health literacy, and what that means for health policy and service delivery.
