Patient information translation

Documents we can translate

Projects can include patient information leaflets, informed consent forms, health-promotion material, questionnaires and information for people taking part in a clinical study. A document for patients may need a different register from a technical report intended for clinicians or regulators.

Tell us the reading audience and share the approved source, clinical terminology, previous translations and any instructions for reviewer feedback. For the wider context, see healthcare translation and pharmaceutical and life sciences translation.

Clear terminology and review

Directions, risks, benefits and contact details need to be communicated consistently. If a term or instruction is unclear in the source, we can raise a query with your nominated contact. Agree who will resolve clinical questions and approve the target-language document as part of the project plan.

If you require independent clinical review, back-translation or a particular production standard, specify it in the brief. We will confirm what the quotation includes. Your clinical or regulatory team remains responsible for approving the document and its use.

Format and accessibility

Tell us if the material must be supplied as an accessible file, an editable document or a print-ready leaflet. If related questionnaires or forms are in scope, provide the files and layout requirements together. See form translation.
