Language Solutions for Health Care
Providing effective health services to a multilingual population is particularly challenging. Language and cultural differences require creative solutions to communications without endangering the quality of care or risking violation of accreditation standards, EEOC or Limited English Proficiency (LEP) requirements.
ALTA provides Health Care organizations with a wide range of communications solutions including:
- Language skill testing for interpreters and bilingual employees.
- Document and form translation in any language.
- Training programs- cultural differences; basic Spanish; interpreting.
- Voice Recording and telephone prompts in any language.
- Consulting services on multilingual and multi-cultural health care services.
Language Skill Testing
If your staff or volunteers provide interpreting services, verification of their language skills is essential for both effective caregiver-patient communication and a defensible position against legal challenges.
