This week is National Patient Safety Awareness Week. I especially like the AskMe3 campaign, a health literacy initiative that aims to improve patient-provider communication by encouraging patients to ask three basic questions of their healthcare providers:

2. What do I need to do?
3. Why is it important for me to do this?
I think we should each ask ourselves these three questions every so often.
