Patient Resources Now Available in Spanish

The Hirshberg Foundation website now includes more resources than ever, and we’re committed to making crucial information accessible to all who need it. We know that language can be a barrier to care, so we’ve translated essential resources into Spanish to help increase awareness in more communities. In addition, we continue to sponsor the publication of a comprehensive guide that supports patients and families through every step of their pancreatic cancer journey.

Language barriers can impact the quality of care and health outcomes for patients. Providing educational materials in multiple languages is essential to reducing health disparities and ensuring that every individual, regardless of the language they speak, has equal access to life-saving information. Our commitment to offering Spanish-language resources helps bridge communication gaps, empower patients, and foster health equity in the fight to cure pancreatic cancer.

Because early detection saves lives, the Hirshberg Foundation provides tools that help patients and families recognize the signs of pancreatic cancer. Our easy-to-read, graphic resources “Know the Risks & Symptoms of Pancreatic Cancer” and “The Pancreas and Pancreatic Cancer Facts” are now available in Spanish (and English) and can be downloaded for free. These flyers are ideal for sharing with family, friends, or in community spaces to raise awareness and promote early detection.

  • Clear explanations of diagnosis and staging
  • Treatment options and side effects
  • Questions to ask your doctor
