Wright Center takes communicating to the next level

EYEWITNESS NEWS (WBRE/WYOU) — A local community medical center has taken communicating with its patients to the next level.

The Wright Center for Community Health now has two medical assistants who are fluent in Spanish and can interpret for patients who speak the language.

They say the need for interpreting continues to grow by the day in northeastern Pennsylvania.

Anthony Beltran is looking to give his Hispanic and Latino patients a true voice.

He and Lida Kiefer grew up speaking Spanish, and are now bringing their first language to the halls of Scranton's Wright Center for Community Health.

But, there's a big difference between being bilingual and being a certified medical interpreter.

"We already speak the language, so why not get certified and be able to do it the correct way?" said Kiefer.

Sharing stories of culture and people

EYEWITNESS NEWS (WBRE/WYOU) — A woman in the Poconos is working to Unite Latino and Hispanic cultures with the surrounding community.

The vice president of the Federation of Latinos for education about the cultures of Hispanic America or Flecha works beyond her role with the non-profit.

"What I do is video interviews, stories with soul, historia con alma right and I'm bringing people stories to the public," said Christina Luna from Cafe with Christina.

The bilingual woman has brought her love of storytelling to the Poconos sharing the stories of Monroe County's Hispanic and Latino communities on her YouTube Channel called Cafe with Christina.

From Barcelona, Spain Luna is able to bridge trust with her interviewees by talking in their native language.

EYEWITNESS NEWS (WBRE/WYOU) — With a growing Hispanic and Latino population, Monroe County is bustling with businesses that reflect those cultures.

"Los morros is a colloquial way in Mexico to refer to kids," said David Cuacuas from Tacos Los Morros.

Inside Tacos Los Morros you'll find a younger crowd at the helm of the kitchen.

"It's me my brother my sister, and my cousin who works here sometimes too, we're all like really young so I thought it was a fitting name," says Cuacuas.

24-year-old David Cuacuas the proud owner of Tacos Los Morros. Opened the family restaurant in May of 2023.
