This second volume of the DPSI Resource Pack Library book consists of a collection of 16 role play topics carefully prepared and tested in classroom settings, which should assist students to prepare to sit Unit 1 of the Health pathway of the Diploma in Public Service Interpreting (DPSI) from the Chartered Institute of Linguists. In addition, the book should help DPSI and non-DPSI students to gain an understanding of important terminological areas for any healthcare community interpreter, such as:- common ailments;- common symptoms;- diagnostic tests;- medical idioms, such as language to describe pain.The author of the book, based in Glasgow, has more than 20 years of experience working in the language service industry, having undertaken a substantial number of interpreting assignments as a public service interpreter and translated several million words both into English and Portuguese for many different high profile organisations, such as the European Commission, the NHS, Scottish Courts and Tribunals Service, Crown Office and Procurator Fiscal Service, Police Scotland, as well as other public sector and corporate organisations. In addition to being a trained linguist, the author also worked in the language service industry as a senior manager for more than 10 years, where he started getting involved in the development of training packages for interpreters and translators. He’s been involved in discussions with many public sector organisations regarding quality standards and professional development of linguists, where he has been a constant advocate of the professionalisation of the public service interpreting profession in the UK.
