Implementing targeted cervical cancer screening videos at the point of care.

Objective: To develop and implement educational videos to improve cervical cancer health literacy for patients within a safety net healthcare system.

Methods: Testimonial-style videos were developed with the goal of describing the Pap test to low literacy patients and motivating them to participate in regular cervical cancer screening. Nurses were trained to use the electronic medical record to identify patients due or past due for a Pap test according to the current screening guidelines.
