"BEYOND
COMMUNICATION LIMITS"
MEDICAL INTERPRETING
TRAINING PROGRAM

UAMS AHEC-SW employs two certified
medical interpreters trained through the

Interpreting Training Program.
Medical Interpreters provide Limited English Proficient

health care provider in order to receive quality care.
UAMS AHEC-SW is working to train bilingual individuals
in southwest Arkansas to help reduce the current
language barriers in the health care setting for LEP
patients. Information is listed below for local training
opportunities.
