                                                                                                                                                 Writing and Language Studies 
            
          The University of Texas Rio Grande Valley offers the nation’s only full program in Medical Spanish for Heritage Learners.  Language 
          barriers significantly compromise the quality of healthcare for limited English proficient patients. Recent  studies have shown that 
          Spanish-speaking patients have disease, mortality, and pain burdens at least twice as high as  English-speaking patients. These facts 
          make language a crucial concern for the improvement of health among Latinos in  the U.S. The Medical Spanish program aims to 
          develop critical skill sets that future healthcare providers can use to  improve communication with Spanish-speaking patients. 
           
          Additionally, the curriculum is designed to raise awareness about language issues that intersect with access to healthcare among 
          Spanish-speaking patients in the U.S. Students in the program participate in a service-learning  internship at a local community health 
          center that serves primarily uninsured and limited English proficient patients.  These activities are intended to prepare students for the 
          National Board Certification Examination for Medical  Interpreters. The program meets the Training Program Standards issued by the 
          National Council on Interpreting in Health Care in 2011.
