Ethical Dilemmas in Interpreting Essay
Ethical dilemmas in interpreting case study 2In the scenario, I am interpreting at a medical practice. The Service Provider (SP) is the GP practice and Service drug user (SU) is a patient. I arrive at the reception on time, the receptionist waves me in direction of the patient and indeed she answers a ph unity call. Then the patient is called into the consultation room. At the consultation room, I try to acquaint myself and give my cipher of Practice (CoP) to the pervert but he ignores me and necessitates what the bother with the patient is. I answer to him that he can ask the patient himself and I will interpret for him. Then the doctor ask me to take the patient back to the waiting room so I can interview her, period he sees another patient, then he will call us back. The following things went wrong during my channel assignment* The receptionist behaves unprofessionally because she shouldnt leave me alone with the patient because this could cause me being partial and uns uitable to do this assignment. * The doctor ignores my introduction. The Code of Practice (section 5.24) says that Service Provider should allow to articulation to introduce him or herself. gate is important because it allows me explain the rules and terms which I am going to follow during assignment.* The doctor should address portion of the public directly (Code of Practice section 5.26). It is important that a service provider speaks directly to a service user, because it allows better communication and connection between, in this situation, patient and doctor, and SU doesnt feel left out.* The doctor doesnt want to interview the patient and ask me to leave the consultation room. The Code of Practice defines this problem as follows Conduct all of the interview yourself. It may be tempting to ask the interpreter to go off and have chat with your client, and then come back and tell you the relevant points, but the interpreter is not qualified to know what information to look for or how to process the information received. (Code of Practice, section 5.29) I wasnt sure what I should do as an interpreter to be in line with my Code of Practice. If I did what doctor asks, I wouldnt be assertive and impartial (Code of Practice, section 2.4). If I refused to do what doctor insists, I would leave the patient withoutany help. I decide to explain to the doctor what my art description is and ask him one more time to interview the patient. If doctor still refuses to do interview I ask him if would be possible to assign the patient to different doctor or nurse. after(prenominal) I finished assignment, I would report the incident with the doctor to the agency if I work for one or report it to practices manager if I am be freelance interpreter.
