Fairview Health Services is an integrated health network providing care—from prevention and disease management to the most complex of life-threatening injuries and illnesses. We provide services in many settings, including clinics, hospitals, community centers, homes and long-term care centers throughout Minnesota.
As part of our commitment to providing you individualized, culturally competent care, we offer staff medical interpreters trained in American Sign Language, Spanish, Russian, Somali, Hmong and other languages through Fairview Interpreter Services. For our deaf and hard-of-hearing patients we offer free sign language and oral interpreters as well as TTYs and other services. If you or someone you know requires a medical interpreter for an appointment, be sure to let staff know when you make that appointment or call Interpreter Services.
