Who knew speaking Spanish would be majorly needed in the U.S. medical field? Spanish is spoken by 54.2 million Latino-Americans in the U.S. and its territories. According to healthcare experts we need Spanish-speaking healthcare professionals due to the unexpected, rapidly growing U.S. Latino population. It is the largest minority underrepresented healthcare workforce that receives the worst healthcare due to language and cultural barriers.

   A solution is for medical providers to hire bilingual staff or to teach Spanish to their English-speaking staff. Without language intervention and culture-friendly treatment, Latinos from twenty-one different countries will receive lesser quality healthcare.

   Did you ever wish to speak a little Spanish to help your patients and felt frustrated because you couldn’t? Now you can without learning an entire language! Speaking only 25 sentences in Spanish makes a difference by improving national healthcare, patient confidence, and job performance. Our workshop makes your job easier by bridging a gap for English-speaking healthcare professionals and Spanish-speaking patients. You may even be inspired to become fluent in Spanish and enhance your income.
