SCHEDULE
9:00 AM – 12:00 PM: Ethical Decision Making
The class will begin with a quick review and comparison of two Codes of Ethics. Participants will then learn the ethical
decision-making model included in the California Healthcare Interpreting Association’s Standards of Practice. Concrete
examples will be used to show how to apply the model to real-life situations. Finally, participants will break into small
groups to consider specific ethical dilemmas. Groups will apply the CHIA model and come up with one or several
acceptable responses to the dilemma.
12:00 PM – 1:00 PM: LUNCH
1:00 PM – 5:00 PM: Interpreting for Cancer Care
This workshop will provide an overview of cancer as a group of diseases, common oncology terms, types of cancer and
related anatomy and physiology, symptomatology, diagnostic procedures, common treatments and their side effects as
well as challenges that interpreters face when interpreting for cancer care. Participants will be provided with handouts
which will include a copy of the PowerPoint Presentation, a glossary, written practice and role-playing exercises. The
workshop will be interactive and allow participants to review the material through group activities and oral interpreting
practice.
