INTERPRETING
Cambridge Health Alliance serves one of the most linguistically
and culturally diverse patient populations in the United States.
Over half of our patients have primary languages other than English.
More than thirty languages are used frequently in our system, and
we encounter over one hundred different languages each year.
To help bridge the linguistic and cultural gap, the Alliance provides
professional interpreters, professional written translation, and
cultural consultation services. These services have a dual purpose
– to allow staff to communicate effectively with patients and to
allow patients to receive health care in their language of choice.
Multilingual Interpreting is also part of the Alliance’s overall
linguistic and cultural strategy, which includes hiring bilingual
bicultural staff, offering language classes to employees, and diversity
training.
