The main purpose of the dictionary is to strengthen communication between Spanish-speaking populations and the health workers serving them, and facilitate dialogue by reducing cultural and linguistic barriers. ![]() The first edition of the English-Spanish Dictionary of Health Related Terms was based on the “English-Spanish Glossary for Health Aids”, published in 1999 by the Primary and Rural Health Care Systems Branch, California Department of Health Services. This third edition includes nearly 14,000 terms, about 4,000 more than the 2nd edition. The majority of the new terms are related to emergency and disaster preparedness. In addition there is a comprehensive list of terms related to anatomy, signs and symptoms, communicable diseases, chronic diseases, maternal and child health, nutrition, occupational health, environmental health, oral health, mental health, substance abuse, domestic violence and traditional medicine. Also, many popular terms used in Mexico and Central America to describe signs and symptoms of illness have been included in the dictionary. iv ![]() This dictionary is a joint effort of the California-Mexico Health Initiative (CMHI), California Policy Research Center, University of California Office of the President, and the California Office of Binational Border Health (COBBH), Department of Health Services. The compilation of materials, editing, and review of this third edition could not have been accomplished without the collaboration of countless people working in the following organizations: ![]() Emergency Preparedness Office, California Department of Health Services
