How to Select the Right Medical Interpreter

Page 2: Languagespro medical interpreter

In the past, medical interpretation was mainly done by the family members on an ad hoc basis and as such there was a high risk of inadequate communication as the family members hardly had any training in this field. Their lack of knowledge often proved to be costly. But that is not the case anymore. Nowadays there are many companies that offer Translation services at affordable rates. When you are planning to hire Medical Interpreter what are the things that you need to consider?

One of the major responsibilities of an interpreter in addition to consultation is the translation part. They will help to translate all the medical documents and at the same time will help you understand the medical terminology as well.

Do not confuse between a medical translator and medical interpreter. Though people use the term in the same breath but they are two different things. The translator will help to translate documents whereas the interpreter helps in verbal communication and is the middle man between the patient and the medical professional.
