Scoping Review of Textbooks for Medical Spanish Education.

ABSTRACT: Despite medical Spanish program proliferation to teach clinicians the language skills to communicate effectively with Spanish-speaking patients, course material selection remains a challenge. We conducted a scoping review to systematically identify medical Spanish textbooks, evaluate utility, and identify gaps. On average, language reviewers scored books lower than medical reviewers. Medical and language professionals present complementary perspectives to evaluating medical Spanish educational materials.
