About Healthy Tasmania
The Healthy Tasmania Five-Year Strategic Plan 2022–2026 (the Plan) is the Government's plan for preventive health in Tasmania. The Plan guides preventive health activity across government and with communities and supports people to live healthier lives and participate more fully in daily life.
Health Literacy
Health literacy plays a critical role in improving health outcomes for all Tasmanians and is a key focus of Healthy Tasmania.
Health literacy means people have the knowledge, skills and confidence to access, understand, remember and use information and services to make everyday decisions about their health and wellbeing.
To develop health literacy for all we need good health literacy practices at an organisational level, such as providing easy-to-read written materials, engaging with consumers in a friendly and welcoming way, checking people’s understanding of health information, and involving consumers in decision-making.
