Reigate, United Kingdom (prHWY.com) April 18, 2011 - Recently conduced survey on the need of the translation services in the social and health services is increasing day by day. Due to the growing number of seniors in which many of them are immigrants. Federal law, especially Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and statutes and regulations in many states, including as California, require agencies and many health care providers to have adequate translations services.

Garcias from Mountain View has encountered with problems in caring their father Felipe 79, an Alzheimer patient, and his wife Manuela, 65, who is a diabetes and heart patient, as they need an adequate language interpretation, especially for medical appointments.
California's new Alzheimer's plan, developed with the Alzheimer's Association, calls for providers to "identify the patient's and family's culture, values, primary language, literacy level and decision-making process."

Marco Garcia said he attends medical appointments with his parents to translate linguistic as well as cultural differences.

"It's just as important to have the cultural comprehension," said Marco, "because if you learn a foreign language but don't understand the nuances inherent in that culture, you'll miss a big part. It's important to translate, but also you need to understand how is Alzheimer's viewed in the Latino culture."

The interpretation and translation services are needed to solve the issues related to medical. The translation service offered by professionals also provides interpretation services.
