Generous grants from the St. Elizabeth Hospital Community Foundation and the Mercy Health Foundation will help Affinity’s health providers better communicate with our Spanish-speaking customers. Affinity Health System now offers our online ADAM A-Z Health Library in Spanish. The St. Elizabeth Hospital Community Foundation grant supports Spanish language QuickSheets for internal provider use. The Mercy Health Foundation grant supports the public Internet version of our ADAM A-Z Health Library.
You may view or use the Spanish version of the A-Z Health Library in several ways.
To view the A-Z Health Library on the web, go to affinityhealth.org click Health Resources, and select the library. Click on any document and in the navigation on the right select “Read Spanish version” link. You may select the same link to change the language back to English.
Also, you may select the A-Z Health Library Spanish from the Health Resources Drop down or on the left navigation in the Health Resources section, as shown below.
To get to QuickSheets use Affinity’s intranet search “QuickSheets”. QuickSheets is a great tool that allows providers to put their name and contract information at the top of their patients’ reference. From QuickSheets start page, you can quickly and easily change articles already in your favorites list to Spanish simply by clicking the Sp icon as shown below:
If you’re selecting a new QuickSheets article you can view it in Spanish by selecting the print in Spanish icon. The article will not print immediately but will appear in Spanish, formatted for printing. You need to click print from the File Menu to make the document print.
Any questions or comments regarding the Spanish Health Library may be directed to Maria Myers at 720-1747 or mmyers@affinityhealth.org
