Show Notes

Two Venezuelan medical students, Carmella Crooks and Victoria Caldera, are pioneering a program to train and certify more medical interpreters at Washington State University Spokane. Their initiative aims to address language barriers in healthcare, starting with a pilot program this May. With limited certified interpreters in Eastern Washington, theyve secured funding to cover certification costs, hoping to improve health equity and ensure non-English speakers receive care without barriers.
