Assessing a client\u2019s health literacy can help the nurse plan their care and education. It is also helpful for the nurse to know some common signs of low health literacy, such as frequently missed appointments, incomplete registration forms, improper adherence to prescription medication regimens, and lack of follow-through on medical tests or referrals. Clients might also try to hide their low literacy by asking few or no questions following a teaching session.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.osmosis.org\/plans\/rn\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"700\" height=\"250\" src=\"https:\/\/www.osmosis.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/09\/image_fcef23.png?w=700\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3979\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.osmosis.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/09\/image_fcef23.png 700w, https:\/\/www.osmosis.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/09\/image_fcef23.png?resize=300,107 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>Want more NCLEX\u00ae-style practice questions?
