UAMS Medical Center is fortunate to have a helpful resource in
communicating with our non-English speaking (or LEP-Limited English
Proficiency) patients.
The Office of Translation and Interpreting Services is responsible for
translation of patient education materials and hospital forms, as well as
one-on-one interpreting services for Inpatient, Emergency Department and
Short Stay units.
Staffed by three interpreters, Mariella Hernandez, Rosa Reed-Skinner and
Dulce Zamora, the
office’s hours of operation are Monday – Friday, 7:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m.
You may
contact the office during those times at 395-8231.
