Abstract

information literacy

health

phenomenography

ageing population

This practice framework is designed for health practitioners and allied health care workers. The framework provides empirically-based descriptions of ageing Australians' experiences of health information literacy and suggests how these may provide a foundation for helping ageing Australians enhance their health information literacy. Health information literacy is understood here to be people's use of relevant information to learn about health.
