About Áine Greaney Ellrott

As an experienced health writer and content developer, I believe in keeping things easy, starting with you, the employer or client- As a skilled communicator, it\'s easy to connect with me about your current communications project, your target audiences and best-case outcomes, impact or ROI - I create clinical content that\'s easy to understand and that honors our diverse learning styles - I research and craft content that makes it easy for the reader, patient, provider or caregiver to engage, understand or ask more questions - I research and include easy-to-find and reliable sources and supporting data for that reader or viewer who wants to know more Data tables and figures inform. Stories help to build understanding, empathy and/or increase advocacy (and nonprofit donations).
