The one where language access gets dissected into pieces to be studied and then reinvented by industry mavens—Eliana Lobo and Joana Ramos.
Please join our newest podcast with an advocate and counselor in health policy, a founding member of the Washington State Coalition for Language Access (WASCLA), director of the Washington Coalition for Prescribing Integrity, Joana Ramos.
Our today’s guest wore many hats. She took on many roles and responsibilities throughout her career but always stayed devoted to equality, social justice and language access for all.
If you are a resident of Washington State, you must listen to the conversation of two Washington-based language access champions—Eliana and Joana. You will feel privileged to live there and experience support from the WASCLA. If you are not a resident of Washington State, tune in to hear true stories of how collaborative effort and perseverance can shift the governmental organization’s approach in the right direction and have a considerable impact on illuminating language barriers in the lives of the LEP people.
Either way, do not miss the STC podcast #13, and you will find out:
-What David and Goliath story makes Joana most proud of having accomplished?
-Why must a coherent language plan be a necessity rather than a luxury for a healthcare facility?
-How to untangle the Gordian knot of insufficient navigation of interpreting services in healthcare systems, gaps in reporting, understanding and commitment to covering all LEP language needs?
-Which circumstances can drastically diminish the language proficiency of native English speakers and those whose native language is non-English?
Please listen to our freshly released podcast and support groups like WASCLA that educate people on their rights and make all voices heard. If you want to change the world, find someone to help you paddle. Let’s break down these hard-crusted silos together!
