One of the strategic objectives of Skills for Health is to, 'Improve participation in learning and employability in the health sector workforce through implementation with partners, of a strategy to improve language, literacy, numeracy and information technology skill levels.'
Literacy, language and numeracy underpin skills and job competences which are essential for an organisation to achieve its goals and improve patient care in a safe environment. This website provides a resource which focuses on helping your organisation to develop a 'Whole Organisation Approach' (WOA) to LLN, specifically developed for the health sector.
This website is currently being developed further and more information will be constantly added.
These resources have been gathered from external partners, Skills for Health and other pages on this website and are free for you to download and use. If you have any suggestions for other resources that we can include, please get in touch.
