Medical Protocols Localization Needed

Job ID: 40423769

Budget: £10 – £15 GBP

I have a set of evidence-based preventive care guidelines and chronic disease management protocols that must be fully localized for a remote-region health initiative. The end users will be Spanish- and French-speaking healthcare professionals, so accuracy, technical precision, and a tone that resonates with clinicians are essential.

You will receive the source protocols in English (roughly 35,000 words). I need them translated into Spanish and French while:

• Preserving clinical terminology, dosage units, and procedure codes
• Adapting cultural references or region-specific examples so they remain practical and legally compliant in the target countries
• Formatting the final documents so they match the original structure—tables, charts, and flow diagrams intact

Preferred tools include SDL Trados or any modern CAT platform that supports translation memory, glossary building, and QA checks. A short test segment will be provided before we move forward so I can confirm terminology handling.

Deliverables
• Spanish and French versions in editable DOCX and print-ready PDF
• Translation memory and glossary files for future updates
• A brief change log highlighting any culturally adapted sections

Acceptance criteria
1. Back-translation spot checks show ≥ 98 % technical fidelity.
2. All medical abbreviations meet WHO/ISO standards for the target languages.
3. Layout mirrors the source document with no text overflow.

If you have a proven track record in medical translation and can commit to a three-week turnaround, I’d love to collaborate.
