Interpreting Cardiology 

This 4-hour workshop will cover essential terminology of the heart and circulatory system, including terms associated with the anatomy and function of the heart, and with the symptoms, diagnosis and treatment of heart disease.  You will have ample opportunities during the class to review and practice the material presented. This is an excellent workshop for healthcare interpreters, both new and experienced, as well as court interpreters who may encounter these medical terms in their work.

 Who is teaching?
 Joe Tein is a DSHS-certified medical interpreter and a Washington State certified court interpreter. He holds a Master's degree in Counseling Psychology and is also a freelance medical translator, working from Spanish and Italian into English. Mr. Tein is the creator of the AOC Court Interpreters’ English-Spanish glossary of legal terms and is the second author of the most comprehensive Italian medical acronym website (www.gilbertolacchia.it/acromed.pdf). He has taught numerous classes and workshops for medical and court interpreters over the years, both in person and through online webinars.
