Spanish for Health Care Providers
The
ability to readily communicate with the public is paramount
for anyone involved in the health care field. It can literally
mean the difference between life and death.
The Tampa Bay area is increasingly bilingual,
which creates confusion and misunderstanding in all sectors
of public service. Nowhere is that more evident than in emergency
health care. When one's safety is concerned, clear and concise
understanding is necessary.
Apex Language Center, Inc. teaches Spanish
for Health Care Providers - an innovative course that
will enable your staff to communicate with the Spanish speaking
population that walk through your doors every day.
Apex Language Center offers intensive courses
created for health care providers in 16 and 32 hour options.
Over the past two years we have taught doctors,
nurses and other emergency response personnel the basic language
needed to communicate with patients whose only language is
Spanish. (This course is also offered in Mandarin Chinese,
French and German.)
Our instructors are language professionals
well qualified to assist your staff in learning as quickly
and painlessly as possible. We make the effort necessary to
ensure every student understands the material and has the
opportunity to ask questions. Class times are spent listening
and speaking: having the ability to communicate is the ultimate
goal. We know how language skills are acquired, it is what
we do - we teach - and we do it well.

- Admission
