Serious Disparities of Quality Care for Communities of Color:
The lack of representation of service providers in mental health from the Latino, African American, Asian American/Pacific Islander and Native American communities has resulted in serious disparities of quality care for all communities of color
These disparities are particularly critical for those
with limited English proficiency who remain isolated not only by cultural barriers but also language barriers that prevent them from receiving proper care

Mental Health Interpreter Training
Goals
To produce culturally competent interpreters who are able to identify the language and cultural interpretation needs of the monolingual and limited English proficiency clients
To help interpreters gain the knowledge and skills to perform effectively in the interpreting roles that best serve the clients and the providers in mental health settings
![Page 5: USE OF INTERPRETERS IN A MENTAL HEALTH SETTING FEBRUARY 19, 2009 LIDIA GAMULIN, LCSW DJ IDA, PH.D. MARIE SANCHEZ, MA Technical Assistance Partnership Cultural](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070409/56649e7c5503460f94b7e48e/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Need for Training Interpreters
There continues to be a serious lack of trained bi-lingual, bi-cultural service providers
Only 6% of psychologists, 8% of counselors and 11% of social workers are from communities of color
US Dept. of Health and Human Services, Center for Mental Health Services (2001)
Having a Ph.D. or MD does not guarantee that a person will be culturally competent
Being bi-lingual does not in and of itself qualify a person to be clinically qualified

George Bernard Shaw once said that Great Britain and America are two countries divided by a common
tongue.
An American car has: British cars have a: a trunk boot a hood bonnet a windshield windscreen and runs on gasoline and burn petrol
If a British gentleman asks a lady for a rubber, he only desires an eraser. And when he promises to knock her up at five, he only intends to visit her in the early evening.

Cultural Broker
A cultural interpreter or cultural broker is an active participant
in a cross-cultural/lingual interaction, assisting the clinician in
understanding the beliefs and practices of the consumer’s
culture and assisting the consumer in understanding the
dominant culture, by providing cultural as well as linguistic
links. This model of interpreting services was developed out of
the awareness that communication is seriously impaired by
insensitivity to the role of culture in the content and manner of
communication, particularly in formal interactions. Source: Bridging the Gap: A Basic Training for Medical Interpreters (1999). SeattleWA: Cross Cultural Health Care program

Translation vs. Interpretation
Translation is the conversionof a message from the source languageinto written form in the target language
Interpretation is the conversion of a message (usually oral) from one language ( the source language) into oral form in another language (the target language)

Would you drink this?
When “Coca Cola” was first
translated phonetically into
Chinese, it sounded like,
“female horse stuffed with wax…”

What an Interpret is Not
o A mental health clinician, therapist or diagnostician
o They should not be placed in the position of making clinical decisions
o They are also not just a “dictionary”, i.e. they also bring invaluable cultural expertise to the sessions

Never Use a Child as an Interpreter
o This places the parent in a lower status position which results in loss of face
o This places the child in an emotionally difficult position of taking care of the parent
o This may be asking a child to communicate information which is beyond his/her developmental capabilities, leading to feelings of incompetence
![Page 23: USE OF INTERPRETERS IN A MENTAL HEALTH SETTING FEBRUARY 19, 2009 LIDIA GAMULIN, LCSW DJ IDA, PH.D. MARIE SANCHEZ, MA Technical Assistance Partnership Cultural](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070409/56649e7c5503460f94b7e48e/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Never Use a Child as an Interpreter
o Information may not be accurately translated
o May be asking child to divulge family secrets which jeopardizes his/her relationship within the family
o Child may not wish to share information but feel compelled since person asking is in position of authority
![Page 24: USE OF INTERPRETERS IN A MENTAL HEALTH SETTING FEBRUARY 19, 2009 LIDIA GAMULIN, LCSW DJ IDA, PH.D. MARIE SANCHEZ, MA Technical Assistance Partnership Cultural](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070409/56649e7c5503460f94b7e48e/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Identify Appropriate Language
o This includes knowing proper dialect. Critical information may not be translated properly if using wrong dialect
o Ask what language the person speaks, not where they are from as this may be different
o Emotions/difficult concepts are usually best expressed in a native language
![Page 25: USE OF INTERPRETERS IN A MENTAL HEALTH SETTING FEBRUARY 19, 2009 LIDIA GAMULIN, LCSW DJ IDA, PH.D. MARIE SANCHEZ, MA Technical Assistance Partnership Cultural](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070409/56649e7c5503460f94b7e48e/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Service Provider Must be Culturally Competent!
Being culturally competent is the responsibility of the provider.
If a clinician is culturally incompetent ~ interpreting insensitive information only guarantees incompetence
in two languages!
![Page 26: USE OF INTERPRETERS IN A MENTAL HEALTH SETTING FEBRUARY 19, 2009 LIDIA GAMULIN, LCSW DJ IDA, PH.D. MARIE SANCHEZ, MA Technical Assistance Partnership Cultural](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070409/56649e7c5503460f94b7e48e/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Use Trained Interpreter Only
o If not properly trained, interpreter may give inaccurate information
o Even if person appears to be fluent in English, technical information and terminology may not be understood and accurately interpreted
o Needs to be familiar with clinical/legal/medical termso Must be sensitive to implications of culture and how this
impacts on individual's responseo If not properly trained may withhold information if
he/she feels it is "shameful" or damaging to client
![Page 27: USE OF INTERPRETERS IN A MENTAL HEALTH SETTING FEBRUARY 19, 2009 LIDIA GAMULIN, LCSW DJ IDA, PH.D. MARIE SANCHEZ, MA Technical Assistance Partnership Cultural](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070409/56649e7c5503460f94b7e48e/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Special Concerns
o Allow for extra time.
o Allocate appropriate resources –To not use interpreter will cost more later both financially and in quality of life. Use of interpreter is critical for quality care.
o May require creative solutions to train and use interpreters for languages with limited population
![Page 28: USE OF INTERPRETERS IN A MENTAL HEALTH SETTING FEBRUARY 19, 2009 LIDIA GAMULIN, LCSW DJ IDA, PH.D. MARIE SANCHEZ, MA Technical Assistance Partnership Cultural](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070409/56649e7c5503460f94b7e48e/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Helpful Hints
o Address comments to the individual – not only is this a sign of respect, the person may actually understand more than he/she conveys
o Do not direct comments to interpreter – this ignores the individual and makes him/her feel discounted
o Allow interpreter to use cultural norms in conveying message, communication styles
o Speak slowly and allow interpreter to translate every few sentences
![Page 29: USE OF INTERPRETERS IN A MENTAL HEALTH SETTING FEBRUARY 19, 2009 LIDIA GAMULIN, LCSW DJ IDA, PH.D. MARIE SANCHEZ, MA Technical Assistance Partnership Cultural](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070409/56649e7c5503460f94b7e48e/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Helpful Hints
o Ask for clarification to make sure information is conveyed and received accurately
o Do not assume if person nods in agreement or says yes that he/she understands what was said
o Own problem of communication - do not blame person.
o Allow interpreter to use cultural norms in conveying message, communication styles
![Page 30: USE OF INTERPRETERS IN A MENTAL HEALTH SETTING FEBRUARY 19, 2009 LIDIA GAMULIN, LCSW DJ IDA, PH.D. MARIE SANCHEZ, MA Technical Assistance Partnership Cultural](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070409/56649e7c5503460f94b7e48e/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Helpful Hints
o Clarify if person understands what has been said
o Review proceedings with interpreter in advance so he/she is familiar with your expectations of interview, evaluation, etc.
o Debrief with interpreter to see if there is information that needs to be clarified or may have been communicated non-verbally by individual.
