  Unpacking the Evolution of Vaccination in Children:
  A Historical and Modern Perspective
  
  Presented by Sara Greenlee, MA CT

  NOTE: This is a pre-recorded workshop reformatted for on-demand viewing.

  
  

  What is it about?
  Vaccines are the newest hot topic across the world. If you have worked in pediatric medicine though, you are already very familiar with them. But do we really know everything we’d like to about pediatric vaccines and the diseases that they prevent? If you’re curious about the science behind different types of vaccines or the systemic damage one tiny pathogen can cause, then this is the workshop for you. We will dive deep into the diseases targeted by the CDC’s pediatric vaccination schedule and the vaccines that are making them history.

  Learning Objectives: 

  • Understand the vaccine schedule recommended by the CDC for pediatric patients
  • Understand the different types of vaccines currently recommended for children in the US and the science behind their development
  • Learn about disease pathology of vaccine-preventable pediatric illnesses
  • Practice targeted skills necessary for interpreting the vaccine schedule and vaccine information
  • Become familiar with diseases discussed in well child and vaccine appointments

  Interpreting for Infant & Pregnancy Loss 
  Presented by Marisa Rueda 

  NOTE: This is a pre-recorded workshop reformatted for on-demand viewing.

  
  

  What is it about?
  Pregnancy is often associated with new life. However, not all pregnancies result in the birth of a healthy child. Obstetric care accounts for a large volume of medical encounters requiring an interpreter. While routine obstetric visits may be predictable and short, medical interpreters need to be prepared to interpret for LEP patients who experience pregnancy complications and loss.

  During this session, you will learn about common causes, terminology, and standard care for infant and pregnancy loss. Additionally, you will hear stories about women who have first-hand experiences with this tragic loss of life. Their stories will provide insight on the emotional, physical, and psychological toll of experiencing this type of loss.

  Coming away from this session you will not only be more intellectually prepared, but also better equipped mentally and emotionally to interpret for patients in these encounters. You will also learn why professional interpreting services can significantly improve outcomes for LEP patients and family members in such situations. 

  Learning Objectives
  

  1. Identify common causes of pregnancy loss and treatment in the early, middle, and late stages of pregnancy. 
  2. Learn about standard care for patients who experience pregnancy loss during the first, second, and third trimesters. 
  3. Recognize the emotional, psychological, and physical challenges specific to pregnancy and infant loss.  
  4. Understand the role of good communication in reducing the risk of emotional and psychological pathologies after pregnancy loss. 
  5. Reflect on and/or discuss how interpreting for these losses affects medical interpreters.

  What is it about? 

  Tube feeding is an intervention used in almost every area of medicine: neonatology, pediatrics, geriatrics, obstetrics, surgery, behavioral health, and many more. Come learn from an Advanced Nutritional Support Dietician which patients are candidates for feeding tubes and why. In this webshop, we will cover the types of tubes that can be offered, what goes in them, and how patients and caregivers are taught to care for them. Live exercises will work on interpretation skills and vocabulary building so that you will never have to ask what a “tubbie” is or how decanting works. Our expert will walk you through every step and have you feeling like a pro in no time! 
  
  Goals of the webshop
  

  • Become familiar with the different types of feeding tubes, the process of placing each type of feeding tube, the basics of feeding tube care, common formulas/formula types, and expected follow up
  • Recognize vocabulary and concepts related to feeding tubes and situate them in context
  • Improve interpretation-related skills that will be used in encounters involving feeding tubes
  • Build a glossary to help prepare for sessions or translations involving feeding tubes

  Interpreting for Well Visits
  Presented by Eliana Lobo

  Are you new to healthcare interpreting? Are you a conference, social services or court interpreter who is interested in taking healthcare assignments? If so, this is the workshop for you!

  NOTE: This is a pre-recorded workshop reformatted for on-demand viewing.
  

  
  

   This webshop is a two-hour workshop, covering interpreting for check-ups and well visits in the following areas of specialization: Adult Medicine and Pediatrics, often referred to as Family Medicine, and the Dental Clinic.  Topics one can expect to cover in each clinic; how to prepare in advance (terminology and concepts related to development, metrics and measurements); proper protocols before, during and after the examination will be reviewed. Resources, recommendations and best practices for interpreting in these settings will be shared. 

  Standards of Practice related to sight translation and assisting patients with forms will be looked at carefully. You will learn about a tool for quickly assessing sight translation requests (that is, weeding out requests that are appropriate from those that are not, along with practical suggestions for handling these requests. Best practice recommendations for navigating privacy issues when assisting patients with paperwork will be shared, as well as how to handle the entering of personal information on forms. The importance of the Pre-Session will be reviewed.

  Most of this presentation is devoted into delving into what distinguishes annual check-ups for both men vs women, adult vs an infant or child, and for dental appointments. What one can expect will take place during these types of well visits will be explained. With the changes brought about by the implementation of Section 1557, more and more dental practices are scheduling interpreters for their patients. A review of practices for preventative (annual check-ups) and corrective (orthodontia) dental care will be reviewed.
  
  This session also covers best practice for assisting patients with intake and return visit paperwork, and NCIHC recommendations for what qualifies for sight translation, and what types of documents need to be professionally translated.
  There will be practice delivering a brief, yet complete pre-session, and how to ask for repetitions and clarifications in a professional manner. Methods (formulas) and phone apps for converting from imperial to metric measures will be shared. Mathematical concepts such as median, mean, average, percentage and percentile, will be discussed in order to help attendees grasp the concepts clearly, so as to find equivalents for their language pair.
  Free links to reputable resources for glossaries, terminology, patient education material and standards of practice will be provided.

  This is a recorded workshop reformatted into an on-demand format.

  What You Need to Succeed as a Video Remote Interpreter
  Presented by Eliana Lobo

  NOTE: This is a pre-recorded workshop reformatted for on-demand viewing.

  

  
  

  This workshop looks at best practices for remote interpreting from home. Increasingly, during the pandemic, many onsite interpreters have made this shift as independent contractors. Telehealth is booming, and despite the easy commute when one works from home, assignments have gotten tougher, as remote interpreting requests have grown in scope and increasingly are scheduled for complex encounters, during this pandemic.
  
  Guidelines for choosing equipment, workstation set-up and connectivity requirements, observing HIPAA, and managing clients during the session are shared. We’ll look at how to:  enhance one’s remote persona, and utilize scripts to enforce best practice (pre-session, confidentiality, transparency and managing the flow). Local and Federal law governing call center employment practices will be examined. Links will be shared for materials and exercises to assist interpreters with skills assessment and enhancement. 
  

  Learning Objectives:
  
  1) Understand how to triage requests to the appropriate modality
  2) Know how to configure your home or call center workstation for best user experience
  3) Understand the importance of continually self-assessing one’s interpreting skills; knowing where to find training materials to develop and improve that skillset
