klb48 Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 Unfortunately I don't speak Japanese or know anyone that does but I would love to go over and help. Have been looking for groups going over but haven't had much luck. If you need an English speaking PA though, I am at your service! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmj11 Posted March 13, 2011 Author Share Posted March 13, 2011 Unfortunately I don't speak Japanese or know anyone that does but I would love to go over and help. Have been looking for groups going over but haven't had much luck. If you need an English speaking PA though, I am at your service! Thanks for your offer. I think the group now has such a pool of people who they've worked with before (Pakistan, Haiti) that they have plenty of English-speaking providers. I will not even offer to go to take up space (besides I'm a headache guy, but who hasn't forgotten all his ER work) but the urgent need is for people who speak the language. Thanks. If anyone knows of a Japanese speaker, please send me a private message! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator EMEDPA Posted March 13, 2011 Moderator Share Posted March 13, 2011 I'm out for this one because I'm at a conference in florida for the next week and working back to back shifts for the rest of the month to make up for it when I get back. I wouldn't feel right asking my partners to cover for me for so long after coming back from a quasi-vacation... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bnel Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 I am a PA that works in Oregon and I lived in Japan for two years and speak the language pretty good. I am not versed in medical japanese though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanuckExpat Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 I understand this thread is older and related to immediate needs due to the tsunami, but I just thought I'd put it out there that I am fluent in Japanese, should any future needs arise. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
