On Site Guest Services
Interpreter Services
Patient Relations wants to ensure effective communication between healthcare providers and the patients/families who do not speak English by providing access to interpretation services 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Our in-person interpreters are “trained” in medical interpretation. To help facilitate communication, Hollywood Presbyterian Medical Center uses Cyra Com language interpretation phones. These are dual handset telephones that are located hospital-wide to facilitate communication when a live interpreter is not available.
Patients are informed of the availability of interpreter services upon admission to the hospital. If they choose, staff will place a language identifier on the patient’s wrist band and give a card to the patient which can be shown to health care providers indicating their need for an interpreter.
