Patient education is the practice of teaching patients about their diagnosis, treatment options, medications, and self-care techniques to improve health outcomes and empower informed decision-making. Nurses, physicians, and health educators deliver this instruction through verbal explanation, written materials, and demonstrations tailored to a patient's needs and health literacy.
