Terms
What Signos is, in plain language
Signos teaches vocabulary. It is a study tool: Spanish words and bedside phrases, taught with practice and judgment exercises. It is not interpreter training, it does not certify anyone, and it is not a clinical communication device. In a real care setting, language access is governed by law and by your employer’s policy, and conversations that affect care belong to qualified medical interpreters. If you remember one thing from this app, make it that.
Learning tool, not a care tool
The phrases, encounters, shifts, and case questions in Signos exist for study and rehearsal. They are not medical advice, not a diagnostic aid, and not a substitute for your training, your preceptor, or your institution’s language-access services. Patients here are simulated. No exercise here authorizes real-world communication.
Where Signos discusses legal duties (including Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, Section 1557 of the Affordable Care Act, and 45 CFR 92.4), it does so for education. It is not legal advice, and your employer’s policies govern your conduct at work.
Content status
Spanish content has not been checked by a qualified reviewer yet. Dialect focus is Mexican Spanish; patients speak many varieties, and no phrase set covers them all.
Purchases
Signos+ is offered as one monthly plan at $3.99 per month for full access. Your subscription renews monthly until you cancel. Cancel anytime from your account; access continues through the end of the current billing period. No refunds for partial months. Payments are processed by Stripe. Free content is free.
Accounts and data
Guest progress lives on your device. When you sign in, your shift and encounter reports, case scores, and streaks are stored with your account so they can follow you between devices. Drill progress stays in the browser where you drilled. We do not sell study data.
The one rule that outranks these terms
Nothing in Signos, and nothing in these terms, changes the standard of care. When a conversation affects care, get the qualified interpreter. The Q&A chapter on the boundary explains where that line sits and why.
