Familiarity with health assessment tools, electronic health records, and sometimes certifications like CHES (Certified Health Education Specialist) are typically required.

What is a health advisor?

A Health Advisor is a professional who provides guidance and support to individuals or groups to help them maintain and improve their health and well-being.
