Abstract

E-health literacy is very important nowadays, since it allows the population to have access to care, but many people do not know about it or do not know how to use it, which is why the objective of the research is to determine the level of e-health literacy of university teachers who attend health centers at the first level of care in southern Lima. This is a quantitative, descriptive, cross-sectional and non-experimental study, with a population of 400 university teachers, who answered a questionnaire on socio-demographic aspects and the e-health scale. In the results, 18.3% (n=73) of the university teachers have a high level of e-health literacy, 31.5% (n=126) medium level, 21.5% (n=86) basic level and 28.8% (n=115) elementary level. In conclusion, it is necessary to provide programs on e-health education, as this implementation would make it more feasible for health workers to carry out safe online practices also for the population.
