  • Publication number: 20060155542
    Abstract: A system and method for delivering instructions in an easy-to-understand format designated as “Show and Tell”—Tech (ST-Tech) Format. For people who cannot read and understand medications or health instructions, ST-Tech offers useful, effective and safety features based on color code, pictures, voice and icons to help ensure accuracy in the management or administration of medications. Just as some icons or signs have been made and became part of the rules of the road universally, this electronic “Show and Tell” electronic method is intended to simplify for the navigation through multiple medication regimens. Medical prescription processed into ST-Tech Format become conversions of the text entries of these prescriptions into visual and spoken instructions for the patients. ST-Tech will help millions of patients struggling with low health literacy and numeracy. Apart from medical prescriptions, the ST-Tech Formatting principle can also be useful in other medical or non-medical scheduled events or tasks.
