Patient Forms Translation

Do you require accurate translation of patient forms to stay compliant with changing clinical and regulatory standards? Request a quote now.

Good clinical practice and an increasing number of legal mandates demand that patients and subjects are able to participate in the health care process and adequately understand the health information and options presented to them. This holds true for hospitals and clinical practices as well as clinical trials.

Patient forms are an important tool for gathering health information as well as consent for participation, treatment, etc. Translating patient forms allows patients and subjects to more fully engage in health decisions that affect them, but it also provides clinics and researchers with a documented, legally defensible approach to serving non-English speakers and individuals with limited English proficiency.

Responsive Translation has helped many clients in the United States with their patient forms translation, delivering accuracy, compliance and customer satisfaction.

What Forms Need to Be Translated?

Depending on the populations you serve and where, a number of forms may need to be translated into one or more languages. However, if you’re not sure, we can advise you on your organization’s particular obligations.

Otherwise, common forms to translate for clinical trials are: the informed consent form, patient registration form, patient instructions form and research participant payment request form.
