    Analysis Of Interpreters Of Occupation By Madeline Otis Campbell

    Throughout this chapter of Interpreters of Occupation, Madeline Otis Campbell discusses the vast differences between two Iraqi generations. Campbell categorizes them into the “revolution generation,” who witnessed the revolution in 1968, the rise of the Ba’th Party, and dictator Saddam Hussein coming to power, and the other generation is the more recent one in which Iraqis essentially only have memories of war and corruption and weren’t born yet for the uprising. Campbell empathizes with both groups attempting to understand both generation’s perspectives on their own community and on the world. Furthermore, Campbell concludes that both generations have different outlooks towards the US involvement in Iraq. The revolution generation typically…

    Net’s Solution – A provider may find communicating with someone who is hearing impaired very difficult to deal with at times. Although, it may be difficult one should always know that there is several people who can assist them when addressing a hearing impaired person. Some people who can assist a provider could be an interpreter. An interpreter is a person who converts a thought or expression in a source language into an expression with a comparable meaning in a target language either simultaneously in "real time" or consecutively after one party has finished speaking. Interpreting is "a form of translation (in the wider sense) in which (a) the source-language text is presented only once and thus cannot be reviewed or replayed, and (b) the target-language text is produced under time pressure, with little chance for correction and revision" (Munday 2009, p.133).The interpreter's function is to convey every semantic element or to express tone and register every intention and feeling of the message that the source-language speaker is directing to target-language recipients. Depending on the situation one is facing it could require a speech, sign or oral language interpreter. Speech interpreters help people understand a specific way to correctly say or use words. Speech interpreters also can help someone who doesn’t fluently speak a specific language. Sign language,…

    Ucd Free Clinic Reflection

    I was the lead Spanish/English interpreter for two years at the UCSD Student-Run Free clinic. This was a fulfilling experience where I was able to shadow medical students and physicians, learn more about underserved populations, practice my medical Spanish and learn more about the health system in general. I believe that during my time at the UCSD Free clinic I made a difference by creating a relationship with the patients. I got the learn more about many of the clinic’s patients, creating a bond that allowed them to trust while talking about their problems and health needs. By having this trusting relationship with patients, I was able to communicate better with the other members of the clinic and as a team create a better plan for participant’s…

    In this regard, the area of major aspect for me is the racial stigma and discrimination encountered by patient. A number of patients may fear of discrimination due to ethnic differences and possess the perception of neglecting due to their social status. For this, the duty of the RN is to assure the patient that the care is not bounded by social factors. I will observe the problems of the patients reflecting their religious perceptions and cultural beliefs. By gaining knowledge and collecting sufficient data, I will disseminate care services that will be inclusive with the respect of my patient’s religious and cultural beliefs alongside ensuring their dignity. Another aspect will be the enhancement of my communication skills. I will engage myself in a healthy conversation with such patient as listening to them will not only builds trust but will assist me in making patients certain about the positive outcomes form a proposed…

    The Importance Of Communication In Nursing Care

    When I asked the administrator she seemed slightly confused and asked if we had someone coming in that did not speak English. I did find out that we use a communication board for daily interactions with nursing assistance and we encourage family involvement. If information is being exchanged regarding medication changes, diagnosis and informed consent first we check if their doctor can translate, because many use doctors that speak their native tongue. This information is gathered at time of admit and a care plan is formulated for the patient anticipating their arrival, in regards to the language barrier. The interdisciplinary team will decide what services may be required and place in the care plan for the staff to utilize. An order is also written given staff direction as to where to call and numbers and staff can sign off and document what was covered, time, date, and outcome of…
