Plain Language blog with resources

[Annette McKinnon]

Ths is from Emmi Solutions and links to a site that suggests ways to simplify writing.

This is less likely to be a problem for patients but may help some researchers

"If you're stuck on how to simplify your message, there are plenty of free resources that can help. A few that I recommend include: University of Michigan's Plain Language Medical Dictionary, The Plain Language Action and Information Network's Guidelines, and the CDC's Guide to Writing for Social Media. If you're writing something longer like a blog post, you might want to use the Hemingway Editor. Just copy and paste your text into the editor and it will suggest ways you can simplify."

It's always good to know what's out there
