Introduction The Human Anatomy Illustrative Guide and Medical Terminology was developed out of a need that was identified through our training programs on health care interpreting and instructing clinical staff on how to work with an interpreter. We heard from bilingual/multilingual staff that they needed tools that would help them communicate with limited English proficient (LEP) patients. From our evaluative work, we also understood that some bilingual/multilingual staff also needed to know human anatomy terms in English as well as the target language. In our mission to close the language gap, we developed the bilingual anatomy chart that includes human anatomical charts, medical terms, and frequently asked questions by doctors during their interactions with patients, in Los Angeles County’s ten threshold languages (Armenian, Chinese, English, Farsi, Khmer, Korean, Russian, Spanish, Tagalog, and Vietnamese). Communication is a critical link to patient safety, quality of care, access to needed health care services, and patient satisfaction. The rapid changes that occur in health care settings create many challenges and opportunities to develop innovative ways of communicating with patients, particularly with linguistically diverse patient population. This resource is in alignment with L.A. Care’s over arching mission which is: “To ensure the provision of culturally sensitive and linguistically competent quality health care services to the Med- Cal population in Los Angeles County through the Safety Net Providers and our health partners, to promote health and disease prevention, to continuously improve the knowledge and effectiveness of our provider community, and to assist in the provision of the same quality of services for the vulnerable populations.” L.A. Care wishes to acknowledge all those that have contributed to the development of this guide. First and foremost, we must thank The Cross Cultural Health Care Program for allowing us to use the illustrations from the “Bridging the Gap” interpreter’s handbook. Sarkis Semerdjyan, Fatima Rodriguez and Elizabeth Nguyen were key staff members of the Cultural and Linguistic Services Department at L.A. Care, who put much energy and effort to ensure the quality of this guide. We also would like to thank the Marketing Department, Young Chi in particular, for her assistance with the layout of the guide. Together in Health, Beatriz M. Solís Director of Cultural and Linguistic Services
