Ensuring access to quality health care has been the cornerstone principle of community health centers. Access is defined in many ways, but one of the most important is communication. Patients need to be able to communicate with providers in a language with which they’re most comfortable.

Providing native language support improves the efficiency and productivity of staff, raises customer satisfaction levels and builds loyalty.
