PATIENTS
If you need help now, you shouldn’t have to wait to communicate.
You arrive unexpectedly at the emergency room, the pain overwhelming your senses. Was it a car accident? A stroke? The medical staff surrounds you: their words are unfamiliar and inaccessible. You wait for an interpreter, the pain in your head growing stronger and faces going dim.
As demand increases, more patients like yourself are seeing longer queues to entry. Sometimes hours go by before you can effectively communicate. Other times you may arrive for an appointment only to find your interpreter is running late: you decide whether to wait or make do. With video interpretation from Language Access Network, you can avoid unnecessary and potentially life-altering delays by immediately connecting to a qualified medical interpreter.
Imagine having an interpreter with you from the time you arrive at a hospital to the time you leave that is available whenever anyone walks in your room. Doctor’s rounds at 2 AM? Your interpreter is only an arms reach away: simply press 1 button and connect to a qualified professional who understands both you and your doctor.
