October 19–25, 2025, marks National Health Education Week, a national observance that highlights the importance of learning how to take charge of our own health.
Health education is more than just sharing information—it’s about helping people understand their options, asking the right questions, and feeling confident using the tools and resources available to them. Whether it’s managing a chronic condition, learning how to use telehealth, or connecting with local healthcare providers, knowledge plays a key role in improving health outcomes.
At Palmetto Care Connections (PCC), health education is woven into our work in telehealth, technology, broadband, and education. By helping individuals and healthcare providers access reliable information and digital tools, PCC supports stronger, healthier communities across South Carolina.
National Health Education Week is a reminder that informed communities are healthier communities—and that access to clear, accurate information is one of the most powerful tools for better care.
