Quick Review of the NCIHC's Code of Ethics for Medical Interpreters

This video is a condensed version of my spiel explaining the National Council on Interpreting in Healthcare (NCHIC) medical interpreting code of ethics. This video serves as a great introduction to the NCIHC's code of ethics OR a quick/easy review for medical interpreters.

Keep in mind that there are THREE widely-recognized medical interpreting codes of ethics in the U.S. (I call them the "Big 3") that are required reading for the NBCMI (National Board of Certification for Medical Interpreters) and CCHI (Certification Commission for Healthcare Interpreters) certification exams:

- The NCIHC National Code of Ethics for Interpreters in Health Care

- The International Medical Interpreters Association (IMIA) Code of Ethics:

- The California Healthcare Interpreting Association (CHIA) California Standards for Healthcare Interpreters (the Ethical Principles for Healthcare Interpreters starts on page 24)
