All rights reserved. Chapter 1 Laying the Foundation for a High-Quality Language Services Program The Goal: To lay the foundation for a high-quality language services program. Why it’s important: A successful language services program begins with a strong foundation. Structuring policies, procedures and other elements to reflect and build on the organization’s priorities will lead to an integration of language services into the organization. How to build it: Language services programs vary in size, number of languages served, systems and modalities of interpretation provided. Before you build your program, ask several questions about your organization—Step 1 (below). Steps 2-5 detail what you need to do in order to build your program’s foundation. 1. Take a snapshot of language services within your organization 2. Develop a language services plan 3. Create a budget and monitor the financial performance of your language services program 4. Evaluate and assess your organization’s performance 5. Develop an improvement plan for language services delivery 1 1. Take a snapshot of language services within your organization • Review your current policies, procedures and structure for the provision of language services: ? What policies and procedures are currently in place? Do any require revision and updating? ? Do current policies and procedures reflect standards of practice for language services? ? Are language services policies and procedures reviewed by an organization- wide policy committee? ? Has your organization addressed language services in its strategic plan? If so, does the plan need to be updated? ? Where is the language services department physically located (i.e., at your organization or another facility in your system)? • Gauge the extent to which language services is embedded into clinical care and the overall organization: ? What is the relationship between language services and other departments, such as the quality improvement department? ? How do senior leaders support language services? ? Is the language services department represented on clinical teams and committees within the organization? ? Under which department is language services housed? • Determine whether your organization values language services: ? Do staff appear to understand the importance of language services? ? Are staff aware of policies and procedures around language services? ? Do staff actually use language services? How? • Conduct an organizational needs assessment to: Assess demand for language services, considering: • Languages spoken by your patient population • Geography of your service area • Areas of high demand within your organization • Times of high demand within your organization. Assess capacity, including internal and external resources available to meet demand: • Systems, staff and equipment currently supporting the delivery of language services, including internal and external resources • Translated materials and signage within the organization. Tip: See Chapter 3, “Building a Language Services Workforce,” and Chapter 4, “Getting the Interpreter Service to the Patient,” for information on the various types of systems, staff and equipment used to deliver language services in health care organizations. 2 2. Develop a language services plan • Form an interdisciplinary team to construct the language services plan, including: • Clinical leaders • Frontline

    Audio Description and Audio Subtitling in a Dubbing Country: Case Studies

    Audio description and audio subtitling in a dubbing country: Case studies Bernd Benecke Bavarian Broadcasting, Munich, Germany Abstract In many European countries foreign films are not dubbed but subtitled. An audio describer has to include all the written subtitles in his script and try to make the description fit in between. Dubbing countries like Spain, Italy and Germany are also used to combining audio description and audio subtitling – for different reasons. This presentation shows how audio subtitling affects the work of describers in a dubbing country like Germany. It will present examples from daily work to show how many different ways are used to deal with the subtitles. Introduction A new focus in the research on audio description is the interaction with the field of audio subtitling. In many European countries, foreign films (mainly with English dialogues) are not dubbed, but rather subtitled. In such a case, the work of the audio describer becomes more complicated, for he has to include all the written subtitles in his script and try to make the description fit in between. In the production process, sometimes more than one narrator is needed to make a distinction between what is subtitle and what is description. From time to time, audio description and audio subtitling in a dubbing country 99 the describer has to introduce the name of a character being subtitled, in order to make clear who is speaking. However, audio subtitling is not a common practice only in subtitling countries: dubbing countries like Spain, Italy and Germany are also used to combining audio description and audio subtitling.

The subtitles in such settings usually correspond to and are aligned with the audio content (top: audio subtitles, Saudio) but are unaligned with the accompanying signing (bottom: Ground Truth annotation of the signing corresponding to the subtitle, Sgt). This is a very challenging task as (i) the order of subtitles varies between spoken and sign languages, (ii) the duration of a subtitle differs considerably between signing and speech, and (iii) the signing corresponds to a translation of the speech as opposed to a transcription. Abstract evaluations, we show substantial improvements over exist- ing alignment baselines that do not make use of subtitle text The goal of this work is to temporally align asyn- embeddings for learning.
  • Third Culture: Making It Work

    Third Culture: Making It Work

    THIRD CULTURE: MAKING IT WORK Bonnie Sherwood (San Diego, California) Introduction This paper is offered to third culture - the community of Deaf and Hearing peo­ ple who are involved in some way with each other. The goal of the paper is to ex­ amine the interactions of this group from the perspectives of intra-cultural communi­ cation, cross-cultUral commUnIcatIon, and cross-cultural mediation. The paper will focus on that group of Deaf and Hearing people who call themselves interpreters and carry on the art of cross-cultural mediation. First, I was 'Hearing-taught.' My mother felt the greatest gift one could impart to a child was the gift of language. To her, one's abilities with language directly re­ Oected one's abilities with communication. She taught me to love and to place great value on language and to recognize with pride the eloquence of the English lan­ guage. Next, I was 'Deaf-taught.' I entered the community under the protective wings of Deaf people. My love for language was boosted exponentially when I had the privi­ lege of learning American Sign Language. Soon, however, Deaf people became the reason for my continued involvement WIth the deaf community. Deaf people taught me their language. They taught me to love, respect, and cherish ASL and the peo­ ple who use It. The care given to me by my Deaf friends and clients has created in me deep love and respect for them . After eleven years of providing interpreting services to thousands of people in hun­ dreds of situations, and after receiving an Associate of Arts degree in [nterpretation and a Bachelor's degree in Communication, I have seen and heard a myriad of prob­ lems that directly relate to communication.

    A System for Simultaneous Translation of Lectures and Speeches

    A System for Simultaneous Translation of Lectures and Speeches zur Erlangung des akademischen Grades eines Doktors der Ingenieurwissenschaften der Fakultät für Informatik der Universität Fridericiana zu Karlsruhe (TH) genehmigte Dissertation von Christian Fügen aus Mannheim Tag der mündlichen Prüfung: 07. November 2008 Erster Gutachter: Prof. Dr. Alexander Waibel Zweiter Gutachter: Prof. Dr. Tanja Schultz ii Abstract This thesis realizes the first existing automatic system for simultaneous speech-to-speech translation. The focus of this system is the automatic translation of (technical oriented) lectures and speeches from English to Spanish, but the different aspects described in this thesis will also be help- ful for developing simultaneous translation systems for other domains or languages. With growing globalization, information exchange between people from different points of origin increases in importance. In the case of the Euro- pean Union or the United Nations often Arabic, Chinese, English, Russian, Spanish or French is used as common communication language, but not all people are able to speak fluently in these languages. Therefore, often simultaneous or consecutive interpretations are necessary to overcome this language barrier. But the costs for such interpretation services are increas- ing continuously — about 1 billion Euros are spent per year within the European Union. Hence, it is not surprisingly that the governmental funding of research in the domain of spoken language translation is increasing. Large research projects have been launched like TC-STAR in the EU and GALE in the USA. In contrast to the system proposed in this thesis, the main focus is to achieve high quality translation of text and speech wherefore systems are required which run at multiples of real-time.

POLICY: It is the policy of Garden Grove Hospital Medical Center to comply with the requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) to provide effective means of communication for patients, family members and hospital visitors. 1. HOSPITAL recognizes the special needs and concerns of individuals who are hearing impaired or of linguistic and cultural minority groups who are limited English proficient (LEP), who are deaf, hard-of hearing, or have physical and/or cognitive limitations. The hospital will provide special communication devices to deaf and hard –of – hearing patients along with qualified interpreters and translation services to patients in accordance with applicable State and Federal Laws. Garden Grove Hospital & Medical Center understands that LEP and hearing impaired individuals may require interpreter services in clinical and administrative settings to obtain equal access to health care. Interpreter services are available for patients twenty-four hour a day, seven days a week. 2. Signage is posted in all patient care areas and ancillary service areas communicating the availability of interpreter services. 3. Bilingual staff should not participate in any interpretation circumstance other than that which is considered a part of common courtesy, i.e., greeting a patient or visitor, providing basic directions around the hospital, etc., unless they are hospital approved. Further, they are not required to participate in any interpretation circumstance which they believe to be disruptive to their normal job assignment, contrary to their own beliefs and values, or which may require special/technical understanding beyond their scope of practice.
