Co‐Designing Strategies to Improve Asthma Health Literacy With Culturally and Linguistically Diverse Communities
The findings informed the modification of our model of care to include bicultural health educators, who support consumers' transition from hospital to home. This model of care is currently under evaluation. SO WHAT?: Nurse-led models of asthma care improve asthma control and health literacy but are not reaching individuals from CALD communities. We asked participants with asthma from three CALD communities, and clinicians looking after those with asthma to provide insights on the barriers (challenges) and enablers (solutions) to improving asthma outcomes and the health care journey for CALD consumers.
