Leading a Healthcare Language Access Program in the Midst of a Pandemic

We are all in a deep state of unknown with everything changing daily. We are all adapting. One thing we know is that the future will look different. The COVID-19 pandemic is impacting how language services are provided, who provides them, and how LEP patients are treated. Let's hear from people on the front lines from the Midwest, West Coast and in the South. CCHI’s Commissioner Jorge Ungo will lead the conversation with Valerie Huang of Nationwide Children’s (OH), Meredith Stegall of Parkland Health (TX), and Angélica Villagrán de Gonzales of Stanford Health (CA). The original broadcast took place on May 19, 2020

CCHI offers two levels of national certification: the professional knowledge CoreCHI™, available for interpreters of any language, and the language-specific performance CHI™, currently available for Arabic, Mandarin and Spanish interpreters. CCHI also administers the national healthcare interpreter Continuing Education Accreditation Program (CEAP).
