Hospital employing Spanish translators in South Carolina

Tagged:

“As the number of Spanish-speaking patients at the Medical University of South Carolina increases, there is also a greater need for translators like Josie Silvagnoli.

Silvagnoli explains patient’s symptoms to doctors who don’t speak Spanish and in turn explains treatments to patients who don’t speak English.

The number of MUSC patients who speak Spanish as their primary language has increased from about 800 to almost 2,100 during the past 2 1/2 years.
