The Story Behind the Need for MedInclude at Grand River Hospital During an internal assessment at Grand River Hospital, the hospital’s Office of Innovation & Research identified a critical gap in medical translation for patient communication. Patients were struggling to understand their care plans, treatment options, and health education due to language barriers—a challenge that could no longer be overlooked. 💬 As shared by the hospital’s Innovation Team: "There was a sheer need to have medical information translated into the patient’s language... This was a big problem that needed to be addressed." MedInclude is proud to partner with Grand River Hospital to ensure that every patient understands their care, regardless of the language they speak. Because clear communication saves lives.
