    Erika, I also believe that mandatory classes should be require of all healthcare workers to acclimate them to the importance of and the resources available to properly communicate with non-English speaking patients. Healthcare providers that are aware of the availability of interpreter services, will utilize these services more often to break down communication barriers and provide cultural appropriate care to those that do not share the same language (McCarthy, Cassidy, Graham, & Tuohy, 2013, p. 339). This discussion post has informed me of the policies and resources available in my own organization and the importance of seeking this assistance early on with individuals who speak limited English or another language.

    In life we all act differently depending on who we are with and the situation at hand. In almost every situation we act in a different way, with our friends in public, with our family members at home, with coworkers, and most importantly our boss in a work environment. Depending on who we are with you could say our personality changes. As humans we know how to act in every situation, at work you would dress more formal, whereas going out with a group of friends you would dress more causal. Along with our looks changing, we also change our behaviors, the way we talk, sit, the tone of your voice, etc. At a doctor’s office, the receptionist must play a defined role. She has to act polite, caring, professional, and must remain discreet about her patient’s information and conditions. The receptionist is 27 year old Hispanic woman, she works at the doctor’s office from 8 am to 5 pm. She is acting in a professional manner, well maintained, dressed in scrubs with closed toe shoes. I would describe the receptionist as upper middle class social status.…
