Abstrakt: The aim of this research is to evaluate the effect of visual education for the basic needs of people with disabilities on the health literacy and life quality of caregivers. The study sample comprised 268 caregivers evaluated in a pretest-posttest pattern. The data were collected using a Personal Information Form, the Health Literacy Scale, and the World Health Organization [WHO] Life Quality Scale-Short Form. Data were evaluated with the Wilcoxon test and Spearman correlation analysis. Following the education given to caregivers, an increase was determined in the Health Literacy Scale sub-dimension of information comprehension and in the WHO Life Quality Scale-Short Form sub-dimension of social relations. Thus it was seen that the visual education increased the health literacy and life quality of the caregivers. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
