On April 15th, John Lohrman, VP, and Luis Hernandez, Region Manager of Florida, visited Mercy Hospital in South Florida. They spoke to two oncology practices…entirely in Spanish. Spanish is the second most common language in the United States and it is still growing because of the proliferation of Hispanic immigration into the United States each year. Inadequate communication between a doctor and his Spanish-speaking patient contributes to difficulties in health care. Consequently, numerous hospitals are now employing people who speak Spanish.
MTR understands the necessity of embracing other cultures and of providing health care services in the Spanish language. In fact, if you look at the MTR homepage, there is a note that says “Se Habla”, meaning we speak Spanish.
