Study examines how pediatric residents across Canada use interpreters to care for patients
Inclusive care comprises a patient's right to communicate in the language they’re most comfortable with. Aware of its importance, BCCHR has helped lead changes that can improve health equity and ensure high-quality care. In the first of a two-part series, you’ll learn about research that examined how medical interpreter services are accessed and used by residents in pediatric training centres across Canada.
