The impact of using teach back to educate Latino men on the importance of lifestyle changes
Sample Answer
- Problem: Latino men have lower hypertension control (31% vs. 48% in white men) (CDC, 2023).
- Teach-back Solution:
- "Show me how you’ll take your meds" → 40% higher adherence (AHRQ, 2022).
- Example: A clinic in Los Angeles saw 30% fewer ER visits after implementing teach-back.
- Problem: Dietary habits (high salt, low vegetable intake) increase hypertension risk.
