» 3/29/2010 - Lassen Medical Group speaks in 6,809 Languages

New Language Line for Non-English Speaking Patients

Lassen Medical Group, Red Bluff and Cottonwood's state-of-the-art facilities, now offers Language Line Services to provide clear communication by phone between staff and non-English speaking patients.

Maria, whose first language is Spanish, speaks very little English. When she developed chest pain, she was very concerned and quickly went to see her doctor - who speaks no Spanish. Through the use of Language Line, it was determined the problem was her gallbladder, not her heart, and the appropriate steps for care were promptly put in place.

The exchange of accurate information is essential in providing the best healthcare possible. With this service, Lassen Medical has access to 6,809 languages spoken in the world today including Spanish, Mandarin, Hindi, Polish, Farsi, Italian, Hmong, Italian, Finnish, Luganda and others. Lassen Medical Group is committed to providing comprehensive quality healthcare for all members of the community in a compassionate manner, guiding people of all ages toward wellness.
