Don’t forget to download the Canopy Speak app!
Canopy Speak features the largest library of multilingual medical phrases ever created and a one-touch button to connect to a facility’s phone interpreter line. With Canopy Speak, a provider can play phrases like “Take long, slow, deep breaths”, “You will feel a pinch and burn as we insert the numbing medication”, “On a scale of 1-10, show me on your hands your level of pain” “Did your pain medication help?” in 15 different languages. This type of routine and basic but necessary communication is sometimes overlooked for limited English proficiency (LEP) patients. Canopy Speak can help you fill in the gaps.
