HeHe!! I know of at least one small town hospital where they are simply SOL! The two ladies working the front desk probably know three words of Spanish between them..."Hasta la Vista".

If the patient can't communicate in English, they don't get helped. It's amazing how many of them drop the pretense and speak English when the patient registration clerk stands her ground.
