Language Assistance

We are committed to communicating clearly and thoroughly with all patients and their families about the care we provide. Independence Health System welcomes our limited English proficiency, deaf and hard of hearing patients, and has special services to help you access our health care services through a combination of live interpreters and Video Relayed Interpretation.

You have the right to a medical interpreter at no cost. To help ensure a smooth hospital stay, please contact your nurse or doctor and ask them to arrange for an interpreter.
