| Summary: | This paper proposed a conceptual model on developing a new Health Literacy Module for Indigenous People
in Malaysia. This proposed model could be used as a reference for researchers to develop new strategies to
overcome health issues on Indigenous People. The proposed model incorporated three (3) phases which are
(i) Phase 1: To determine the Knowledge, Attitude & Practice (KAP) on parasitic infections among Indigenous
People, (ii) Phase 2: To develop self-useful kit for Indigenous People according to the needs in Phase 1, (iii)
Phase 3: To develop a health literacy module of parasitic infections as a referral for Indigenous People. This
research will have a significant contribution to provide an in-depth knowledge on identification of health care
problems related to parasitic infections towards the development of health literacy module for Indigenous
People. Authors will propose new or adapted or/and adopted tools/products/guidelines to be established
based on the findings of this research. The findings are aimed to improve quality of life for Indigenous People
in Malaysia. |
