2010-09-09

PORTLAND, OR, September 09, 2010 (Press-News.org) viaLanguage, a leading provider of global healthcare translation and localization services, today announced that York Hospital is the winner of its video production giveaway. The short "Welcome" video will greet York Hospital's Latino patients, visitors and members. York Hospital will receive design, voice and production services - up to a $2,500 value.

"Websites are often the first impression to your community and as the Spanish-language dominant population continues to rapidly increase, it makes sense to incorporate Spanish content," says Chanin Ballance CEO of viaLanguage. "We also know that a large percent of Latinos go online to search for healthcare information and are eager for more content in their own language. Online video especially is an excellent way to engage and market to this audience."

According to comScore, more than 78% of the U.S. Internet audience view online videos. Furthermore, an increased adoption of video usage in healthcare is happening; anything from compliance and marketing to clinical care and efficiency. Interestingly, multilingual videos have also been rising, with Spanish videos rising more rapidly than in other languages.
