    • Abstract:
      The author reflects on the frustration of a colleague in simplifying a document for inpatients and family members. He shares that the hospital where his colleague is working requires them to write such documents at a fifth grade reading level. He then elaborates on the Flesch-Kincaid (F-K) readability grade level and examines the readability of his editorials.
