Appropriate information provision to empower and enable active participation in rehabilitation is vital to achieve the best clinical outcomes. Current information leaflets made available for patients following upper arm breaks are not fit for purpose and are written in a way that the general population would not readily understand. There is an urgent need to understand the information needs of patients and present such information in an accessible way to optimise clinical outcomes following upper arm breaks.
