Cover Story: Finding health-related information and identifying misinformation is challenging due to the “infodemic” in social and mass media. As healthcare professionals are key providers to address reliable information to patients, promoting health literacy is obligatory in their daily practice. For nurses, there are established strategies to respond effectively to patients’ health literacy needs. In particular, community health nurses assume responsibility for the promotion of health literacy in communities with a wide range of peculiarities. However, there is limited research on health literacy promotion tools used by community nurses. Accordingly, this scoping review explores and maps the scope of the literature on strategies led by community health nurses to improve health literacy in (patients with) chronic diseases. View this paper
