As effective communication allows patients to express their medical concerns and needs with their medical care providers, it is an essential part of high-quality healthcare. Increased global mobilization of people in regard to political, social, or climate change-related reasons are exposing people to healthcare settings where they experience difficulty in expressing themselves. This is where this non-profit medical language app comes in.

The first version(1.0) of the Medical Language Hub (MLH) application is designed to enable people to express their medical problems in an easier way. People might have a good command of their native language to express themselves in a healthcare setting. When the same scenario takes place in a local language of a different location, it might be challenging. That’s why people who are learning the local language can benefit from a medical Turkish terminology guide when they need it.
