Implementation of a new storage system for patient education materials, orientation of all health professionals in the unit to the new system, and periodic distribution of patient education newsletters.
Self-reported use of patient education materials.
Response rates were 73% (30 of 41 health professionals) in 1990 and 86% (36 of 42) in 1992. Responses to the first survey on use of 20 categories of patient education materials showed materials were seldom used by most respondents. Back Care, Nutrition, Diabetes, VD/Birth Control, and Pregnancy categories were the most frequently used. In the second survey, more respondents reported using these five categories of pamphlets. Rates of use varied only slightly for the remaining 15 categories.
Health professionals reported more frequent use of certain patient education materials following implementation of a new storage system.

自我报告的患者教育资料使用情况。
1990年的回复率为73%(41名卫生专业人员中的30名),1992年为86%(42名中的36名)。对关于20类患者教育资料使用情况的首次调查的回复显示,大多数受访者很少使用这些资料。背部护理、营养、糖尿病、性病/节育和怀孕类资料是使用最频繁的。在第二次调查中,更多受访者报告使用了这五类宣传册。其余15类资料的使用率变化不大。
卫生专业人员报告称,在实施新存储系统后,某些患者教育资料的使用更加频繁。
