Writers and editors: Do you know why and how to use patient-friendly language in documents? In this article I wrote for ACES: The Society for Editing, I share some of my tips for creating patient-friendly language.
I welcome discussion of—and even disagreement with—my posts. But if you feel the need to call me or others rude or crude names, your comments will be deleted. I won't tolerate racism, sexism, ageism, looksism, weightism, gay-bashing, religion-bashing, culture-bashing, or any other prejudice here. Also, if your only reason for commenting is to link back to your site and not to discuss a post, your comment will be deleted.
