The principles of good practice in working effectively with interpreters are generic to all areas of care. The resources focus specifically on the highly sensitive and nuanced conversations with patients and families about deterioration and dying and palliative care.
The resources can be used for self-directed learning or by facilitators for group learning.
We would welcome any feedback on the stories, the impact they have on you and your practice and how we can further improve these resources. Contact us on research@loros.co.uk
