Medical Interpreter

Course Description: In this class you will learn medical terminology used by doctors, nurses, and receptionists in Spanish and English. The new Health Care Language Assistance Act requires that health and dental insurers provide an interpreter for limited English-speaking patients to lessen medical mistakes and delayed treatments. This class is beneficial for not only those looking to become interpreters but also for patients seeking to understand medical terminology. Class will meet once a week to complete a total of 24 hours. A certificate of completion will be presented at the end of the course and job assistance will be available.

Class will be held every Tuesday for a total of 8 weeks.
