Frequently asked questions
What is an ASL interpreter?
An American Sign Language (ASL) interpreter is a language professional who facilitates communication between Deaf or Hard of hearing individuals and those who communicate through spoken language. Their extensive training allows them to accurately interpret spoken language into sign language and vice versa, allowing members of the deaf community to access services and information easily.
Are hospitals required to get ASL interpreting services? What are the benefits of having ASL interpreters?
Laws such as the Americans with Disabilities Act and Title VI of the 1964 Civil Rights Act require hospitals and healthcare facilities to provide ASL interpreters for Deaf and Hard of hearing patients.. Every person is entitled to quality medical care and these laws ensure that Deaf and Hard of hearing patients have equal access to healthcare treatment.
Ultimately, having ASL interpreters within reach (whether as in-house staff or through a language service provider) will enhance communication between patients and doctors. This greatly reduces the risk of medical errors and ensures that patients from the Deaf community fully understand their health conditions and available treatment options.
Where are ASL interpreters needed the most? What industries are they usually part of?
ASL interpreters are vital in healthcare, education, legal, and government settings. In healthcare, they ensure that patients from the deaf community can communicate effectively with their doctors. In education, they support the learning of Deaf students by helping them access information. In legal and government settings, they guarantee that Deaf and Hard of hearing individuals can participate fully in proceedings and have access to public services.
