Abstract

Group health literacy training sessions that implement culturally concurrent methods, including pre-recorded presentations, are effective in increasing postpartum knowledge and health literacy in the Arab RIM community, regardless of parity. Enhancing PHL has the potential to reduce the risks of postpartum complications, such as postpartum depression (PPD), and can potentially contribute to postpartum females' mental and physical health.
