Whatever you study, having languages seems to be a big plus for my resident D. She was assigned her own patients and 3 of them speak / understand Spanish only, and she just got a new patient who can speak English but was not able to explain everything in English. D. was able to use her other foreign language with this new patient. D. said that the translation services are available but she notices discrepancies in translation. Do not have to be fluent, but some degree of fluency in few languages will provide a great advantage.
