Abstract
The absence of specialized health education for seniors may lead to decreased health literacy, increased health risks, social isolation, and a strain on the healthcare system. Establishing a health education class could address these issues, improve health outcomes, and reduce preventable health problems. The review aims to assess the implementation of a health promotion program to improve the health literacy of elderly individuals.
