West Central Interpreting Services We Speak Your Language
Our mission at WCIS is to enhance the delivery of healthcare to New Americans by increasing equitable access to healthcare providers for linguistic and culture diverse patients through providing professional medical interpretation and translation services.
WCIS has identified five core values that are key to our business operations, community partnerships, and clients:
- Integrity – We strongly believe in accountability. Therefore, at WCIS we are dedicated to honesty and openness. We are who we say we are and will follow through our promise with action.
- Professionalism – We are committed to professionalism on all platforms. In order to best service our clients and healthcare partners, it is vital that we establish non-conditional trust and demonstrate a strong multi-level partnership within communities. The foundation of this value is to provide our interpreters with the materials, tools, and ongoing training to ensure that we are providing the best interpreting and translation products.
- Community – At WCIS, we know that in addition to the ever-changing healthcare industry communities are also evolving and therefore so are the community needs. WCIS is devoted to staying current with these trends and shifting our delivery of services and products to meet current community needs.
- Respect – We respect our clients, healthcare industry partnerships. Our employees will be respectful of our clients and partners’ unique needs.
- Flexibility – Communities and healthcare providers are both fluid and the only constant is change. We will demonstrate flexibility to meet the unique scenarios presented to us on a case-by-case basis.
Our agency culture is one that is defined and built upon our promise to live by our mission statement and demonstrate our values in the day-to-day operations.
