Health literacy includes patients' reading and math skills,comprehension,the ability to make health-related decisions,and successful functioning as a consumer of health care.It is a strong predictor of health status and patient outcomes.The homeless patient is at high risk for having minimal health literacy.Psychomotor learning occurs when patients acquire skills that require the integration of knowledge and physical skills.Developmental stage is not as important as health literacy and developmental stage is more important when teaching children.Motivation is an internal impulse,such as an emotion or need,which prompts,guides,and sustains human behavior.
