Spanish interpreters are available weekdays.
At night, on weekends, or at any other time for languages other than Spanish, the services of volunteer interpreters are coordinated by the Medical Center Language Bank. Advance notice of the need for an interpreter is very helpful, whenever possible, and will decrease wait time. A certified sign language interpreter is available for deaf or hard of hearing patients or visitors. TDD, closed-captioned televisions, and assistive listening devices are also available. If you are happy or unhappy with the hospital services or need assistance of any kind, contact Patient Representatives.
