than 3 days, and designed the featured series of

high-density communication spreads. These graphics

were also repurposed for PowerPoint presentations.

Applications were Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator.

WORKSHOP ABSTRACTS

1st Annual Southeast Regional Medical Interpreter Conference

Interpreter-Specifi c Workshops#101 High-Acuity Interpreting in Healthcare: Assigning and Including Diffi culty Level for a Comprehensive Evaluation of Interpreter ProductivityPresenter: Andrea Henry SimsHealthcare interpreters perform their skills in a wide vari-ety of encounters; some are relatively easy and others are more diffi cult. The diffi culty level varies greatly. However, interpreter productivity is often analyzed in a manner that does not take this variation into account. The purpose of this presentation is to highlight these variables to assist interpreters in identifying diffi culty level and its impact on their concentration skills and their competence in the interpreted encounter. It will also be useful to coordinators who, in the process of growing their departments are in need of an analysis mechanism that can thoroughly refl ect productivity. As a point of comparison, we will look at current practices in the clini-cal fi eld (nursing, etc) to see how diffi culty level (i.e. acu-ity) correlates with productivity and staffi ng levels.

#102 A Second Look at First PersonPresenter: Patrick Moore, M.A.Traditionally, interpreter training prescribes fi rst person style. Because medical interpreters may be untrained, many work in third person. Although it is clearly neces-sary to use fi rst person interpreting in court interpret-ing, it may not be obviously so in medical interpreting. Despite this, fi rst person interpreting is considered the standard for practice in medical interpreting, just like in court interpreting.This workshop presents insight into why some interpret-ers insist on working in third person and how trainers may want to address that issue. It also explores reasons why interpreters would want to work in fi rst person, even if they might prefer third person if left to their own devices.

#103 Interpreting at the End of LifePresenter: Cynthia E. Roat, MPHThere are few interpreting environments more challenging than that of interpreting for a patient who is dying. Un-familiar procedures, complex technical terminology, the presence of multiple providers and family members, ma-jor cultural differences, and emotional stress make this a prime arena for unclear communication, interpreter error and burn-out. This workshop, designed for trained and experienced interpreters, will help participants develop skills in interpreting for providers and patients/families at the end of life. The workshop will include technical in-formation, ethical discussions, vocabulary development, and interpreting practice.

#104 Transforming Barriers into AssetsPresenter: Dijana RizvanovicThe purpose of this presentation is to provide health care providers and interpreters with the necessary tools to in-crease effective cross cultural communication by: identi-fying participants’ own specifi c values which may impact how they view patients from other cultures, identifying their own “stage” of cultural competence, identifying barriers to intercultural communication, identifying per-sonal communication style and gaining greater tolerance for different styles of communication.

#105 Impact of Public Discourse: Federal Re-quirements under Title VI: Current InitiativesPresenters: Marshall Tobias, Beatriz Romero-EscobarDuring this presentation attendees will get an understanding of how public discourse, and absent facts create a negative atmosphere in the health care area for immigrants and Limited English Profi cient individuals. Additionally, participants will learn how the provisions of Title VI (Providing safe and informed health care to LEP persons) remain the same as evidenced by the American Hospital Association/Health and Human Services National Hospital Initiative.

#106 Landing the Job: Improved Interviewing Skills for InterpretersPresenter: Jorge U. UngoEnsuring that patients obtain competent interpreting services requires careful screening and interviewing of candidates. The interview is the interpreter’s opportunity to shine in front of a potential client or employer, be it an agency or a health care provider. However, like most interviewees, interpreters often do not prepare, leading to anxiety at the moment of the interview. With proper preparation and attention to detail, you can set your mind at ease and prove that you are the best candidate for the position. What criteria are hiring managers using to qualify their candidates? What can you do to better rep-resent yourself during the interview process? Learn tips on how to answer tough questions, focus on the positive and leave behind the nerves! After this fun, interactive presentation you will go into your next interview with confi dence and a positive attitude.

#107 Getting through the negotiation without breaking a sweat!Presenter: Jorge U. UngoNobody likes to hear ultimatums, but most people try to avoid negotiation at all costs. Just the thought of hav-ing to “haggle” on rates or reimbursement of expenses makes most interpreters and translators nervous and

61st Annual Southeast Regional Medical Interpreter Conference

Keynote AddressMarjory A. Bancroft, M.A.

A Sense of Mission and Meaning: How Interpreters Are Changing the SoutheastThe southeast states have seen dramatic changes. Be-tween 2000 and 2006, the number of foreign-born resi-dents climbed by 30 percent in Georgia, 35 percent in Kentucky, and 40 percent in South Carolina and Tennes-see. Hispanic residents tripled in Atlanta, quintupled in parts of the Carolinas and climbed by 15 to 20 times in key areas of Kentucky and Tennessee. These new immigrants have brought swift economic changes and cultural riches. Yet many are uninsured and speak limited English. Medical interpreters witness the traumas and challenges of immigrants but also their vi-tality, contributions and hard work. Medical interpreters protect the safety and well being of our new residents. Of-ten buoyed by a sense of social justice and human values, they support high standards in health care. As a result, they have hit the local and national media spotlight.Their impact goes farther still. Medical interpreters in the southeast routinely raise awareness of human rights and equal access to health care. They highlight effective com-munication skills that are helpful for all patients. They pro-mote human dignity and respect. They save lives. Finally, through their dedication, professionalism and humanity, they help to counter negative images of immigrants by serving as role models and spreading a positive image of other cultures and ways of life. In the southeast and across the nation, medical interpreters have given a voice to the voiceless and a luminous human face to immigration.

Plenary SessionInterdisciplinary Panel: Opportunities and Threats Facing Interpreters in the SoutheastPanelists: Mary Rynerson, Sylvia Sham, Marilyn Teague, Jeannine De La Torre UgarteA ‘panel of experts’ speaks on the oppor-tunities and challenges faced by medical interpreters in the Southeast. An oppor-tunity to hear insights from the perspec-tive of an executive of a major over-the-phone interpreting services provider, a freelance medical interpreter, an ASL in-terpreter, and a coordinator of interpret-ing services.

A bilingual Canadian, Marjory Ban-croft is a national leader in the de-velopment of training programs for community interpreting and dual role interpreters. Ms. Bancroft has lived in eight coun-tries and speaks fi ve languages. She holds a BA and MA in French lin-guistics from Quebec City and ad-vanced language certifi cates from

Spain, Germany, and Jordan. After teaching translation, English and French at universities and immigrant schools in Canada and Jordan, she immigrated to the U.S. Here she became an interpreter in health and human servic-es programs and directed a non-profi t language service while establishing a health program for immigrants. To-day she is a leading national advocate for professional training for dual role interpreters. She directs an agency devoted to language access and community interpreting, speaks widely at conferences and has trained thousands of participants in interpreting and cultural competence across the country. She also serves on the Board of the National Council on Interpreting in Health Care.With numerous publications in the fi eld, including sev-eral manuals for interpreters and trainers, she is the co-author of The Community Interpreter, the only national program for community interpreters (addressing health care, education and human services) as well as an up-coming manual and trainer’s guide for The Language of Justice: Interpreting for Legal Services, a three-day pro-gram to cross-train community interpreters to perform legal interpreting.
