Webinar: The Hidden Patient Safety Risk at Discharge, March 17
Discharge is one of the most legally and clinically vulnerable moments in care – especially for multilingual patients.
When instructions are unclear, inconsistently translated or poorly integrated into documentation workflows, the consequences extend beyond confusion. Health systems face increased risk of medication errors, non-adherence, preventable readmissions and compliance exposure.
Health systems often depend on translation tools that were not designed for healthcare. These tools can miss context, misinterpret terminology and create gaps between discharge documentation and patient understanding.
In this live discussion, Albert Villarin, MD, vice president and chief medical informatics officer of Nuvance-Northwell Health, shares how his organization is approaching discharge communication risk and what health system leaders should consider when modernizing multilingual workflows.
Key takeaways include:
- Why discharge communication failures disproportionately impact multilingual populations,
- Where general-purpose translation tools break down in clinical workflows,
- How health systems can strengthen documentation integrity for multilingual discharge instructions, and
- Governance, security and compliance considerations for managing multilingual patient data.
