24.01.2022 Episode 3 of Conversations: Interpreting and Translating Podcast is available to stream now and delves into, Why some patients of established languages refuse the service of interpreters. This weeks special guest, Despina Amanatidou (Healthcare Interpreter, AUSIT Vice President Events & PD), discusses why for established languages (such as Greek, Italian, Turkish, etc) clients with limited linguistic mastery are under the wrong impression that they dont require interpretin...g services as they can get by. A lot of the clinicians are under the same mistaken impression (as long as someone can tell them their name, nods, says Yes and Thank you) and this creates obstacles in the provision of language services. You will never know the difference between getting by and using the services of an appropriately qualified and competent professional interpreter, which is of course, up until you use such services as you should. Now and with the added complexity of a pandemic, there is a tendency for interlingual communication to be reduced to a bare minimum due to both necessity and convenience. However, this very misinformed attitude has far reaching ramifications to the complete, accurate and effective communication and is a concern for all stakeholders in the industry.

21.01.2022 Conversations: Interpreting and Translating present our upcoming webinar on the 26th of August 2020 5pm-6:30pm AEST, Interpreting in Domestic Violence Settings Part 1. The Royal Commission into Family Violence published six recommendations relating to interpreting services. The final report concluded that interpreting services were inadequate and highlighted the need for training in relation to understanding the nature and dynamics of family violence. Disclosures and discu...ssions of domestic violence may occur in a range of service settings not only in expected ones such as police, family court or womens services. It is important that all interpreters, regardless of their usual field of practice, are appropriately prepared in order to meet the needs of professionals, CALD clients and their own practice when working in these settings. This webinar will provide an introduction to this specialist field of work as well as a series of useful resources for independent study.

20.01.2022 Over the last 30 years, weve grown to provide translation, interpreting, publishing and language technology services Australia-wide. All of our interpreters and translators are NAATI-certified or qualified graduates and undergo regular professional development, helping them to excel at integrating with and enhancing our clients communication technologies and procedures.

20.01.2022 One of the worlds hardest jobs is surely a doctor having to give a patient bad news. Its harder still when the patient speaks a different language. Now think about a doctor giving a complex set of instructions to that same non-English speaking patient relating to medication consumption or post-operative care. Its easy to see how language gaps can result in service gaps, with significant impact. A recent study by the University of Washington trialled language-specific audio... recorded discharge instructions to parents with Limited English Proficiency (LEP), whose children would be recovering from day surgery. The 83 parents enrolled in the study gave the audio recording an average rating of 9/10. More than 45% of participants played the recording more than five times, and 94% shared the recording with other family members. The results of this study are another great reminder of the positive impact we can have on linguistically diverse groups with insightful yet simple applications of translation services.

20.01.2022 Australia has recently seen a number of Kurdish refugees and immigrants settle in regional settlement areas, but there is often confusion about who the Kurds are, and their relation to the countries in which they reside. To assist in better understanding All Graduates presents a Webinar on Cultural Awareness Session on Kurdish Culture & Language, designed for professionals who work with or are involved with services to CALD communities. In this session, a panel of practising... Kurdish interpreters and a language specialist will look at the distinct cultural and linguistic features of this group, and how service providers can best meet their needs.
