Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
The nurse should ask a female professional translator to help. Female clients are more comfortable discussing health problems through a female translator. The nurse need not ask questions that can be answered by a yes or no; the nurse should avoid using technical terms during conversation, or using simple words and speaking slowly. These methods can be used if the client understands English as a second language

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
An interpreter should be able to communicate without implying judgment, bias, or personal opinions. The interpreter should not speak loudly, communicate using slang, or paraphrase what the client says.
