Summary

The goal of this pilot randomized controlled trial is to compare health literacy (HL) and quality of life (QOL) among older adults with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) who completed a series of standardized palliative care (PC) educational video learning modules to usual care (US). The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are:

Between Groups:

* What effect does completing a series of standardized PC education video learning modules have on HL among older adults with COPD treated in the emergency department (ED) compared to usual care?
* What effect does completing a series of standardized PC education video learning modules have on QOL among older adults with COPD treated in the ED compared to usual care?

Within Groups:

* What is the change from baseline to study completion for older adults with COPD who receive the educational intervention series of PC learning modules on HL?
* What is the change from baseline to study completion for older adults with COPD who receive the educational intervention series of PC learning modules on QOL?
* What is the change from baseline to study completion for older adults with COPD who receive UC on HL?
* What is the change from baseline to study completion for older adults with COPD who receive UC on QOL?

All participants will complete a baseline and study completion health literacy questionnaire (HLQ) and Medical Outcomes Study: Short Form 36 survey. The treatment group will view one standardized learning module per week for four weeks provided by Get Palliative Care and log their weekly completion in REDCap. The control group will receive usual COPD care. Researchers will compare the treatment group receiving weekly palliative care education to usual care to see if HL and QOL change.
