Free Interpreters for Patients at Reading Hospital
Reading Hospital provides interpreters and other language help, free of charge, to patients and families who do not speak English or who are deaf or hard of hearing. Spanish-language interpreters are on staff, American Sign Language interpretation services are available, and the hospital uses the Language Services Associates (LSA) Phone Service for quick access to more than 150 languages.
If you or a loved one needs an in-person interpreter for a language other than Spanish, let the hospital know at least three business days before an appointment so the arrangements can be made.

The same 1-484-628-8005 number is printed with notices about free language assistance in Spanish, Chinese, Vietnamese, Russian, Pennsylvania Dutch, Korean, Italian, Arabic, French, German, Gujarati, Polish, Haitian Creole, Cambodian and Portuguese. To ask for a copy of that information in Spanish, call 484-628-8005.
