Register Now: Webinar on Shared Decision-Making With Low Health Literacy Patients
Registration is open now for a webinar on December 9 from 1 to 2:30 p.m. ET that will address how clinicians can effectively engage patients who have limited health literacy skills in shared decision-making. Shared decision-making occurs when a health care provider and a patient work together to make a health care decision that is best for the patient. Research shows that implementation of shared decision-making in clinical practice increases patient satisfaction, enhances patient understanding of their treatment options and increases their involvement in decisions about their care. Yet shared decision-making has not been widely adopted in clinical practice and can be particularly challenging to implement with patients who have limited literacy skills. The webinar will be accredited for continuing education for physicians, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, nurses, pharmacists and certified health education specialists. Determination of continuing education credit through Professional Education Services Group is pending. The webinar is offered via AHRQ’s SHARE Approach initiative, a five-step process for shared decision-making.

AHRQ offers accredited Webinars on topics related to the implementation of patient-centered outcomes research in shared decision making.
SHARE Approach Tools
The SHARE Approach tools are a collection of references guides, posters, and other resources, all designed to support AHRQ’s SHARE Approach implementation. Tools in this collection include:
- Step-by-step tips and sample talking points for implementing the SHARE Approach with patients.
- Tips to communicate with patients who may come from different cultures or have limited skills in language or understanding of numbers and using the Teach-Back technique to enhance shared decision making.
- An implementation guide for clinical practice teams.
- A brief for administrators and other senior leaders outlining the benefits of using shared decision making.
SHARE Approach Workshop
The SHARE Approach Workshop is a one-day, accredited train-the-trainer program developed by AHRQ to help health care professionals work with patients to make the best possible health care decisions together.
This training focuses on how to engage patients in their health care decision making and how to use patient-centered outcomes research (PCOR) information tools and resources (e.g., patient decision aids) to help patients understand their treatment options and to explore their own values and preferences.
Participating physicians, physician assistants, nurses, nurse practitioners, certified diabetes educators, certified health educators, and pharmacists will earn seven hours of continuing medical education credits/continuing education units (CME/CE).
