Hi everyone, my name is Olivia Galvin, I am a vascular physiologist in University Hospital Limerick.  I am currently studying for a MSc. in Health Promotion and Project Management at Atlantic Technological University, Sligo. To complete my masters’ program, I am required to conduct a piece of research.

I have chosen to explore the level of Health Literacy awareness and education among Clinical Measurement Physiologists, who provide diagnostic services to patients managing a chronic disease, through surveillance programs or physiologist-led clinics. Research has evidenced, tailored Health Literacy communications can encourage patients to adhere to their chronic disease management plan and to interact with all healthcare professionals and healthcare systems more confidently.
