VidaTalk™ is an interactive, multilingual communication tool for non-verbal patients, also serving facilities where patients and providers may speak different languages. VidaTalk is specifically designed and tested for the hospital environment with funding support from the National Institutes of Health, National Institute of Nursing Research NR014087. The most common phrases used by hospitalized patients can be selected with a single touch. Patients may also type personalized messages and draw with their finger which allows for quick, easy and customizable communication. Words and phrases specific to their needs are expressed through recorded audio across gender and language, giving every patient a voice.
This version of VidaTalk includes English and bilingual communication with both verbal and written translation for 40 languages: Amharic, Arabic, Armenian, Bosnian, Burmese, Cantonese, Chinese, Creole, Czech, Dari, Dutch, English, Farsi, French, German, Greek, Hindi, Hmong, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Khmer, Korean, Lithuanian, Marshallese, Nepalese, Pashto, Polish, Portuguese, Punjabi, Russian, Somali, Spanish, Swedish, Tagalog, Thai, Tigrinya, Turkish, Ukrainian, and Vietnamese.
Speech solutions for long-term or chronic communication disabilities often fail to meet the unique needs of the healthcare environment and leave non-verbal patients unable to actively participate with their care. VidaTalk is an essential component of any critical care and equity, diversity and inclusion communication program. If you, a family member, or loved-one is hospitalized and suffers from speech or language barrier, be sure to download VidaTalk today!
