Patient Information Booklet

The patient information booklet is a written document containing more detailed information relating to specific health conditions, delving into these conditions a little more deeply than the shorter patient information leaflet. The booklet aims to provide patients with the information they need to effectively and efficiently manage or treat their health concern.

Booklets are available through many websites and through local healthcare providers. However, as with leaflets, many of these are not evidence-based or customised to the local population. This is potentially dangerous to patients, which is why it has become imperative that the issue is adequately addressed through the availability of high quality materials.
