In today's healthcare world, effective communication can be vital to proper treatment and patient health. Bridging language and cultural barriers between providers is crucial for medical services. As cities become more diverse, health care providers face growing challenges to ensure that patients with limited English proficiency (or with no proficiency) receive adequate assistance. Multi Lingual Solutions, Inc. offers comprehensive foreign language services to assist providers in such efforts. Our professional linguists have both substantive expertise and practical training in the healthcare field -- many have studied and taught in leading medical institutions across the globe. In applying quality control measures on each assignment, Sun Translation Associates and project managers are careful to ensure that our work is appropriate culturally as well as linguistically.

Serving the community...

Multi Lingual Solutions can assist in ensuring that healthcare entities provide meaningful access to programs and services, in compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. By helping to assess the language needs of the institution, developing effective interpretation and translation policies, and offering customized staff training, Sun Translation can serve as a key resource in your compliance initiatives. We welcome the opportunity to work with you in serving your community.

Our specialized healthcare services include the following:

Translation of Healthcare Materials
Sun Translation can translate a wide array of documents such as medical records, patient forms, physician correspondence, educational literature, and hospital policies and procedures. Medical terminology has its own extensive, unique vocabulary. Terms do not translate in a literal sense. Precision in meaning is critical for the proper application of materials in each specific market, not only for general health and safety, but to increase acceptance and lower liability claims.

Healthcare Foreign Language Needs Assessment
Sun Translation can provide an in-depth assessment of your foreign language needs and develop an expert plan to meet your requirements in conjunction with those of the Federal and State government.

HIPAA Compliance Resources
Sun Translation can help your organization comply with new privacy requirements by translating notices and training materials so patients and providers are aware of their rights and responsibilities under the law.
