Redeemer Health Translation Services Bring Comfort and Confidence to Patients Whose First Language Is Not English
May 18, 2021
categories:
To best accommodate patients whose first language isn’t English or who have limited English proficiency, Redeemer Health provides FREE interpretation services that help non-English speakers confidently communicate with doctors, nurses, and other staff.
“Language barriers can hurt a patient’s healthcare journey,” says Nadiya Miklosh, a Redeemer Health Certified Medical Interpreter. Fluent in Russian and Ukrainian, Nadiya joined Redeemer Health to facilitate communication for patients who speak these languages.
“I can help make these patients feel comfortable and emotionally supported because I understand their cultural context and differences, which allows them to feel confident in the healthcare decisions they make,” says Nadiya.
Redeemer Health makes available in-person or over-the-phone translation. To initiate these services, patients or their families are invited to call 215-947-3000 and request to be connected to Redeemer Health’s free language assistance line.
