Ashworth CollegeHuman Resource Management

The interpreter should decline to share the information because confidentiality is a fundamental ethical responsibility. Information obtained during an interpreting assignment must be protected unless disclosure is required by law or authorized by the appropriate parties. Maintaining confidentiality preserves consumer trust, protects privacy, and upholds the integrity and professionalism expected of certified interpreters.

At the end of a medical appointment, a Latino Deaf patient is given a card with the date "9/10/98" for the next scheduled appointment.

The CDI should - ANS-continue interpreting the lecture A CDI team is interpreting in a lawyer's office. During the assignment the CDI repeatedly needs to ask the feed interpreter to sign more clearly. At the end of the assignment, the CDI should - ANS-have a post session with the team interpreters to discuss your concerns A CDI has a Deaf co-worker.

the sign DEAF WORLD means - ANS-culturally Deaf people Which of the following should the interpreter least depend upn to assess the consumer's comprehension of the message - ANS-The consumer nods his/her head conduit / machine model of interpreting - ANS-With the birth of RID at Ball State, and as a reaction against the helper model, the pendulum swung to the opposite extreme and interpreters felt that they had to be invisible, neutral, and uninvolved. They were only a telephone wire that served as a conduit for information flow. The intention was to avoid the injustices that happened under the helper model and to return control to deaf people, but when people are invisible, their humanity is not recognized, and so they feel worthless. When people struggle to be neutral, their opinion is suppressed about even matters that would make the interpreting process run more smoothly. In an effort to be uninvolved, interpreters disengaged their concern. The "9-5 attitude" arose, where interpreters did not socialize with deaf people and thereby were seen as cold fish. Lack of cultural understanding led to alienation from the Hearing World and the Deaf World. The major relationship was with the hearing community, since this was the interpreter's default community and a machine does not interact while working. The positive thing was the institution of standards and ethics; the negative thing was that deaf people were getting a representation of the words, but not of the meaning. communication facilitator model - ANS-The pendulum started to swing back as both interpreters and deaf people came to realize that something was missing. Interpreters started to assert their needs. They would take responsibility for introducing their role, lighting, seating, meeting the deaf person before the assignment, and interpersonal skills. The positive thing was that these things were appropriate to take charge of since it allowed interpreters to do their work; the negative thing was that interpreters still didn't take on responsibility for the communication. bilingual bi-cultural mediator model - ANS-Next interpreters sought to understand both cultures and find equivalence in as far as possible to get both sides to see the other's perspective. They become culture brokers, but there is a danger in trying to be the expert in either world. This could be visualized as a double-helper model were both Deaf and Hearing people need help and the interpreter is the one to give it to them. The major relationship was with the Deaf community for non-Codas, trying desperately to catch up and become an expert in ASL and the Deaf community. The positive thing it that interpreters can find greater semantic equivalency; the negative
