Learn and practice medical Spanish relevant to the field of PM&R!
The PM&R Scholars Medical Spanish Network was created to help busy physicians and medical students learn Spanish in the most efficient and effective way possible. Every week, our members share inspiring stories of more successfully communicating and connecting with Spanish-speaking patients, and we would like to personally invite you to join our community. Your investment into this endeavor will not only expand your ability to care for Spanish-speaking patients, but can also serve to help reduce healthcare disparities in this population related to language barriers.
At no cost to you, our community provides a number of opportunities for you to grow in your Spanish-speaking skills, including:
- Interactive large group activities, game nights and case series.
- Live small group sessions led by fluent Spanish-speakers.
- Resources including lectures and educational posts on Twitter/X, Instagram, and YouTube (@PMRScholarsMSN)
