Language assistance services

We have translators available in person, by phone and by video call to assist patients at every Roper St. Francis Healthcare location.

Translator on video call with doc and patient

How it works

Understanding a medical diagnosis can be challenging enough without a language barrier. If English isn’t your first or primary language, or if you don’t speak English, it can impact how you receive care and your ability to understand what your doctor recommends. We provide language assistance services at every single Roper St. Francis Healthcare facility.

Ask your doctor to use a translator or have them call our translation number at (855) 865-8778, to have a medical interpreter help translate your conversation. Everyone deserves a doctor who not only listens but can explain things in a way they understand.
