RSVP: Language Access Services and Health Equity
Equity Forward Workshop: Language Access Services and Health Equity
Date and Time: May 21, 2025 5:30 PM EST
Location: Virtual via Zoom

Speaker: Lois  Wessel, DNP, FNP-BC

Language access requires that individuals with limited English proficiency (LEP) can access information, services and opportunities in their preferred language.  Healthcare services are required by law to provide language access services. Individuals with LEP often face barriers to accessing and understanding healthcare, leading to poor health outcomes. This session will review the legal and organizational requirements for providing care to LEP populations and examine how healthcare providers can improve communication with this population.

At the end of the workshop participants will be able to...
  • Define language access and explain its relationship to health equity.
  • Understand the legal guidelines for language access services for limited English proficient populations.
  • Explore how language barriers affect patient care and provider satisfaction.
  • Identify legal and ethical considerations for language access in healthcare.
  • Examine how to improve language access services in healthcare settings.
