This workshop examines some of the issues pertaining to interpreting in healthcare settings. 

We will spend some time discussing the role and positionality of the interpreter and consider some of the challenges and issues that may arise in these contexts. 

Additionally, we will explore how translanguaging and employing a consecutive strategy can provide us with greater opportunities for effective meaning-making. Reflection and discussion will be key features of this training.
