It may be appropriate for you to discuss your interpreting assignment with someone outside of the healthcare encounter, if you do not provide the patient’s name, or other identifying information.
- A.
True
- B.
False
Correct Answer
A. TrueExplanation
It is appropriate to discuss your interpreting assignment with someone outside of the healthcare encounter if you do not provide the patient's name or other identifying information. This is because maintaining patient confidentiality is crucial in healthcare settings, and discussing the assignment with someone who is not involved in the encounter helps ensure that patient information remains confidential. By discussing the assignment without revealing any identifying details, interpreters can seek guidance or support without compromising patient privacy.Rate this question:

Correct Answer
C. Attempt to simultaneously interpret everything the family says, or ask family members to take turns speaking.Explanation
In this scenario, the interpreter should attempt to simultaneously interpret everything the family says or ask family members to take turns speaking. The interpreter's role is to facilitate effective communication between the patient, family members, and the doctor. By interpreting everything the family says, the doctor can stay informed about the discussion and actively participate in the treatment plan. This ensures that the patient receives the necessary care and that all parties involved are on the same page.Rate this question:

This is the best course of action because it allows the doctor to fully understand the patient's perspective and beliefs, even if they may seem irrelevant to the doctor's medical assessment. By asking the patient to explain what the "evil eye" is, the doctor can gain insight into the patient's cultural or personal beliefs that may be influencing their perception of their illness.

The interpreter should ask the patient if she would like to discuss her concerns with a nurse.
